Like 32 versus 110.

I think you are forgetting about making Eastern Europe and Russia into Germany's big back yard while using the "sub-human" Slavs as slave labor. And the Holocaust. That was a part of the Make Germany Great again program.

And all that happened after the Nazis seized power after the 1933 election.

Hitler wrote about lebenstraum in 1923.

He knew what is goals were the whole time. And they were stated for all the world to see if they bothered to read. You may have a right to your snarky one liner posts that insult others but you don't have the right to deny the facts.

Oh, okay, Trump isn't out to "right the wrongs of Versailles." Got it.

And Trump isn't out to "right the wrongs" (as he sees it) of anyone who came before him?

What an idiotic statement.

Are you saying that less than one third of the German voters are responsible for the Nazis seizing power because they didn't read his book?
