5. Echoes of the Past: A Comparative Analysis of
Trump's Rhetoric and 1930s Dictatorship
The evolution of technology has
significantly altered the landscape of
political communication. While the dictators
of the 1930s Europe, such as those in Italy
and Germany, relied on the technological
advancements of their time, such as radio
broadcasts and public speaking events to
disseminate their messages, modern
politicians like Donald Trump have access to
a plethora of advanced digital tools. These
tools include software capable of
manipulating video and audio in real-time,
potentially allowing for the creation of
realistic-looking footage of public figures
saying virtually anything.

6. In the 1930s, technological projects like the construction of the SS Rex and
the MacchiM.C.72 seaplane were symbolic of Italy's advancements and were
used to promote the Fascist regime's image of power and progress. Similarly,
Trump's speeches, often broadcasted through contemporary media channels,
are designed to build a strong ethos and showcase his credibility, albeit
through different technological means
The use of declarative moods in Trump's
speeches, functioning as statements to
establish authority and credibility, mirrors
the communication strategies of 1930s
dictators who also positioned themselves as
authoritative information bearers. The goal in
both eras has been to shorten the gap
between the leader and the audience, albeit
the mediums through which these messages
are delivered have evolved.

7. The potential misuse of modern technology, such as the combination of voice-morphing and face-morphing
software, raises concerns about the authenticity of public discourse. This mirrors historical instances where
propaganda and controlled messaging were used to manipulate public perception, albeit with less sophisticated
tools compared to today's advanced digital manipulation capabilities.

8. Despite the stark differences in technology, the underlying principles of persuasive speech—building ethos, pathos,
and logos—remain consistent across the decades. Both Trump and the 1930s dictators have utilized their respective
technologies to craft speeches that resonate with their audiences, aiming to influence and mobilize public opinion.
In conclusion, while the tools and platforms have evolved, the essence of political communication and the strategies
employed by leaders like Donald Trump and the European dictators of the 1930s share similarities in their attempts to
connect with and persuade the masses. Donald Trump was a bad loser when he lost his re-election. His lies about
rigging the election were just pure fantasies to incite his faithful voters. These turned into outright illegal acts and
stormed the Capitol and without Donald Trump's words or lack of words, the mob felt it was OK to commit these
serious crimes and endanger the democracy of the United States.

13. A dictatorship is a form of government characterized by a single leader or group of leaders
and little or no toleration for political pluralism or independent programs or media.
According to other definitions, democracies are regimes in which "those who govern are
selected through contested elections"; therefore dictatorships are "not democracies".
With the advent of the 19th and 20th centuries, dictatorships and constitutional
democracies emerged as the world's two major forms of government, gradually
eliminating monarchies, one of the traditional widespread forms of government of the
time. Typically, in a dictatorial regime, the leader of the country is identified with the title
of dictator, although their formal title may more closely resemble something similar to
"leader". A common aspect that characterized dictatorship is taking advantage of their
strong personality, usually by suppressing freedom of thought and speech of the masses,
in order to maintain complete political and social supremacy and stability. Dictatorships
and totalitarian societies generally employ political propaganda to decrease the influence
of proponents of alternative governing systems

36. Dictators

39. Xerxes (485-465 BC)
Xerxes the Great was a Shah of Iran (485–465 BC) of
the Persian Achaemenid Empire. Xerxes was son of
Darius I and Atossa, the daughter of Cyrus the Great.
After Darius died, Xerxes became the Shah of Persia.
He took up the title of Shahanshah(King of Kings). In
the Graeco-Persian Wars at the Battle of Thermopylae,
Xerxes defeated the Greek warriors and annexed parts
of Greece. After winning at Thermopylae, Xerxes then
took control of Athens with his army.

40. Dionysius I, (born c. 430 bc—died 367), tyrant of Syracuse from 405 who, by
his conquests in Sicily and southern Italy, made Syracuse the most
powerful Greek city west of mainland Greece. Although he saved Greek
Sicily from conquest by Carthage, his brutal military despotism harmed the
cause of Hellenism.
Dionysius I or Dionysius the Elder (c. 432 –367 BC) was a Greek tyrant of
Syracuse, Sicily. He conquered several cities in Sicily and southern Italy,
opposed Carthage's influence in Sicily and made Syracuse the most
powerful of the Western Greek colonies. He was regarded by the ancients as
an example of the worst kind of despot: cruel, suspicious, and vindictive.
Dionysius I of Syracuse
Dionysius began his working life as a clerk in a public office. Because of his achievements in the war against Carthage that
began in 409 BC, he was elected supreme military commander in 406 BC. In the following year he seized total power and
became tyrant.[2] He was married to Aristomache, and had a daughter by her, Arete. He was married at the same time to Doris of
Locris, who bore him his son, Dionysius II of Syracuse. Dionysius seized power with the help of a personal group of
mercenaries, likely recruited from among the Sileraioi. This force, initially 600 men and later raised to 1,000, was granted to him
as a bodyguard after he faked an attack on his own life.[citation needed] Having consolidated his position, Dionysius imposed
the mercenaries on all parts of the polis community, signaling that democracy had ended in Syracuse. His rule was
"unconstitutional and illegitimate and could not fail to provoke rebellions among the partisans of democratic government".[3]
Dionysius' position at home was threatened as early as 403 by those philosophically opposed to tyranny.

41. Dionysius of Syracuse's military
attempts to place Alcetasin the
throne of the Molossians
He fought a war with Carthage from 397 BC to
392 BC with mixed success; his attempts to
drive the Carthaginians entirely out of Sicily
failed; at his death they were still masters of at
least a third of it.
He carried out an expedition against the
Italiote League in 387 BC in southern Italy. In
one campaign, in which he was joined by the
Lucanians, he devastated the territories of
Thuriiand Croton in an attempt to defend
Locri. After a protracted siege, he took
Rhegiumin 386 and sold the inhabitants as
slaves.

42. According to some sources, after gaining a prize for one of his tragedies, “The Ransom of Hector” (see Intellectual tastes
below), at a competition at the Lenaiafestival at Athens, he was so elated that he drank himself to death. Others report that he
died of natural causes shortly after learning of his play's victory in 367 BC.[citation needed] According to others, he was given
an overdose of a sleeping potion by his physicians at the instigation of his son, Dionysius the Younger, who succeeded him as
ruler of Syracuse. A similar theory, proposed by Justin, stated that Dionysius "was defeated and broken by constant warfare,
and finally murdered by a conspiracy of his own kin“
Dionysius was one of the major figures in Greek and European history. He was a champion of the struggle between the Greeks
and Carthage for Sicily, and was the first to bring the war into the enemy's territory. He transformed Syracuse into the most
powerful city in the Greek world, and made it the seat of an empire stretching from Sicily across to Italy. Although this empire
was technically a constitutional republic, in fact it was the first Greek empire which was in effect a monarchy; in this, Dionysius
foreshadowed the accomplishments of Alexander the Great and beyond him of Augustus. He also foreshadowed these later
rulers in being one of the first Greek rulers to be given divine honors during his lifetime, and he made innovations in military
technique, such as siege engines, which became a standard feature of warfare under Alexander the Great and later generals.

43. Qin Shi Huang
Qin Shi Huang February 259[e] – 12 July 210 BC) was the founder of the
Qin dynasty and the first emperor of a unified China. Rather than maintain
the title of "king" borne by the previous Shang and Zhou rulers, he ruled
China from 221 to 210 BC as the first "emperor of the Qin dynasty. This
title, which he invented for himself, would see continuous use by Chinese
monarchs for the next two millennia.
Born in the Zhao state capital Handan, as Ying Zheng or Zhao Zheng , his
parents were King Zhuangxiang of Qin and Lady Zhao. The wealthy
merchant Lü Buwei assisted him in succeeding his father as the ruler of
Qin, after which he became Zheng, King of Qin. By the age of 38 in 221 BC,
he had conquered all the other Warring States and unified all of China, and
he ascended the throne as China's first emperor. During his reign, his
generals greatly expanded the size of the Chinese state: campaigns south
of Chu permanently added the Yue lands of Hunan and Guangdong to the
Chinese cultural orbit, and campaigns in Inner Asia conquered the Ordos
Loop from the nomadic Xiongnu, although the Xiongnu later rallied under
Modu Chanyu.

44. Qin Shi Huang also worked with his minister Li Si to enact major economic and
political reforms aimed at the standardization of the diverse practices of the earlier
Chinese states. He is traditionally said to have banned and burned many books and
executed scholars. His public works projects included the incorporation of diverse
state walls into a single Great Wall of China and a massive new national road
system, as well as his city-sized mausoleum guarded by a life-sized Terracotta Army.
He ruled until his death in 210BC, during his fifth tour of Eastern China. Historically,
Qin Shi Huang was often portrayed as a tyrannical ruler and strict Legalist, in part
from the Han dynasty's scathing assessments of him. Since the mid 20th-century,
scholars have begun to question this evaluation, inciting considerable discussion
on the actual nature of his policies and reforms. Regardless, according to the
sinologist Michael Loewe "few would contest the view that the achievements of his
reign have exercised a paramount influence on the whole of China's subsequent
history, marking the start of an epoch that closed in 1911

45. Julius Caesar
Gaius Julius Caesar; 12 July 100 BC –15 March 44 BC) was a Roman general
and statesman. A member of the First Triumvirate, Caesar led the Roman
armies in the Gallic Wars before defeating his political rival Pompey in a civil
war, and subsequently became dictator from 49 BC until his assassination in
44 BC. He played a critical role in the events that led to the demise of the
Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire. In 60 BC, Caesar, Crassus,
and Pompey formed the First Triumvirate, an informal political alliance that
dominated Roman politics for several years. Their attempts to amass political
power were opposed by many in the Senate, among them Cato the Younger
with the private support of Cicero.
Dictatorships and honours
Prior to Caesar's assumption of the title dictator perpetuo in February 44 BC,
he had been appointed dictator some four times since his first dictatorship in
49 BC. After occupying Rome, he engineered this first appointment, largely to
hold elections; after 11 days he resigned. The other dictatorships lasted for
longer periods, up to a year, and by April 46 BC he was given a new
dictatorship annually.

47. Herod the Great
Herod or Herod the Great (c.72 BCE –c.4 BCE) was a Roman Jewish client king of the Herodian
Kingdom of Judea. He is known for his colossal building projects throughout Judea. Among these works
are the rebuilding of the Second Temple in Jerusalem and the expansion of its base the Western Wall
being part of it. Vital details of his life are recorded in the works of the 1st century CE Roman–Jewish
historian Josephus.
Herod also appears in the Christian Gospel of Matthew as the ruler of Judea who orders the Massacre of
the Innocents at the time of the birth of Jesus, although most Herod biographers do not believe that this
event occurred. Despite his successes, including single-handedly forging a new aristocracy from
practically nothing, he has still been criticized by various historians. His reign polarizes opinion among
historians, some viewing his legacy as evidence of success, and some viewing it as a reminder of his
tyrannical rule.
Herod died in Jericho, after an excruciatingly painful, putrefying illness of uncertain cause, known to
posterity as "Herod's Evil". Josephus states that the pain of his illness led Herod to attempt suicide by
stabbing, and that the attempt was thwarted by his cousin. In some much later narratives and depictions,
the attempt succeeds; for example, in the 12th-century EadwinePsalter. Other medieval dramatizations,
such as the Ordo Rachelis, follow Josephus' account. Josephus stated that Herod was so concerned
that no one would mourn his death that he commanded a large group of distinguished men to come to
Jericho, and he gave an order that they should be killed at the time of his death so that the displays of
grief that he craved would take place; his brother in law Alexas and his sister Salome did not carry out
this wish.

48. Caligula
Gaius Caesar Augustus Germanicus (31 August 12 –24 January 41), better known by his nickname Caligula,
was Roman emperor from AD 37 until his assassination in AD 41. He was the son of the Roman general
Germanicus and Agrippina the Elder, Augustus' granddaughter. Caligula was born into the first ruling family
of the Roman Empire, conventionally known as the Julio-Claudian dynasty.
Although Gaius was named after Gaius Julius Caesar, he acquired the nickname "Caligula" ('little boot'), the
diminutive form of caliga, a military boot, from his father's soldiers during their campaign in Germania.
When Germanicus died at Antioch in 19, Agrippina returned with her six children to Rome, where she
became entangled in a bitter feud with the emperor Tiberius (Germanicus' biological uncle and adoptive
father). The conflict eventually led to the destruction of her family, with Caligula as the sole male survivor. In
26, Tiberius withdrew from public life to the island of Capri, and in 31, Caligula joined him there. Following
the former's death in 37, Caligula succeeded him as emperor, at the age of 24.
Officers within the Praetorian Guard, led by Cassius Chaerea, conspired to murder Caligula, and succeded.
The plot is described as having been planned by three men, but many in the Senate, army and equestrian
order were said to have been informed of and involved in it. In the year 40, Caligula announced to the Senate
that he planned to leave Rome permanently and to move to Alexandria in Egypt, and rule from there as a
divine monarch, a Roman pharaoh:

49. Nero
Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus (/ˈnɪəroʊ/ NEER-oh; born Lucius Domitius
Ahenobarbus; 15 December AD 37 –9 June AD 68) was Roman emperor and the final emperor
of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, reigning from AD 54 until his death in AD 68.
Nero was born at Antiumin AD 37, the son of GnaeusDomitiusAhenobarbusand Agrippina
the Younger, a great-granddaughter of the emperor Augustus. When Nero was two, his father
died, and his mother married the emperor Claudius who adopted Nero as his heir. When
Claudius died in AD 54, Nero became emperor with the support of the Praetorian Guard and
Senate. In the early years of his reign, Nero was advised and guided by his mother Agrippina,
his tutor Seneca the Younger, and his praetorian prefect SextusAfraniusBurrus, but soon
sought to rule independently and rid himself of restraining influences. His power struggle with
his mother was eventually resolved when he had her murdered. Roman sources implicate
Nero in the deaths of both his wife Claudia Octavia –supposedly so he could marry Poppaea
Sabina –and his step brother Britannicus.
The Great Fire of Rome began on the night of 18 to 19 July 64, probably in one of the
merchant shops on the slope of the Aventine overlooking the Circus Maximus, or in the
wooden outer seating of the Circus itself. Rome had always been vulnerable to fires, and this
one was fanned to catastrophic proportions by the winds. Tacitus, Cassius Dio, and modern
archaeology describe the destruction of mansions, ordinary residences, public buildings, and
temples on the Aventine, Palatine, and Caelian hills. The fire burned for over seven days
before subsiding; it then started again and burned for three more. It destroyed three of
Rome's 14 districts and severely damaged seven more.

History of elections 1930 - 1938

51. German federal election, 1928
Federal elections were held in Germany on 20 May 1928. The Social Democratic Party of
Germany (SPD) remained the largest party in the Reichstag after winning 153 of the 491
seats. Voter turnout was 75.6%.
The only two parties to gain significantly were the SPD, who polled almost a third of votes,
and the Communist Party of Germany (KPD), completing a thorough victory of the left
wing. However, although the SPD now had 153 seats, it still failed to gain a clear majority,
resulting in another coalition government led by Hermann Müller. Following his
appointment, Müller, who had already been Germany's Chancellor for 4 months in 1920,
created a grand coalition of members of the SPD, the German Democratic Party, the Centre
Party and the German People's Party. The coalition was plagued by internal divisions right
from the beginning, with each party more concerned with their self-interest than the
interest of the government and eventually Müller asked President Paul von Hindenburg
for emergency powers. When Hindenburg refused, Müller resigned, marking the end of
the 'last genuinely democratic government of the Weimar Republic' on 27 March 1930

52. The recently-reformed Nazi Party contested the elections after
the ban on the party was lifted in 1925. However, the party
received less than 3% of the vote and won just 12 seats in the
Reichstag. Adolf Hitler, who had been incarcerated in Landsberg
prison for his involvement in the Beer Hall Putsch until Christmas
1924, had concentrated on re-establishing himself as the leader of
the Nazi Party following his release rather than on the party's
electability.

The German federal election occurred on 14 September 1930. Despite
losing 10 seats, the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD)
remained the largest party in the Reichstag, winning 143 of the 577
seats, whilst the Nazi Party (NSDAP) dramatically increased its number
of seats from 12 to 107.
The two major parties of the Weimar Coalition, the SPD and Zentrum
(Centre Party) had no high gains or losses –in contrast to their partner
DVP, but the two results of the elections seen as dramatic were the
NSDAP reaching more than 100 seats, and big gains for the Communists
(KPD) –an additional 23 seats.

58. Results
The 1930 German election drew 82% voter turn-out, an unprecedented event. The
incumbent political party, the Social Democratic Party (SPD), lead in the popular vote
and won 143 seats, a loss of 10 seats from the previous election. The National Socialist
German Workers Party (NSDAP) rose to the second largest party with 18.25% of the vote
and took home 107 seats, a remarkable additional 95 seats over the last election. The
only other party to gain seats was the Communist Party, which won 13.13% of the vote,
securing 77 seats, a gain of 23 additional seats than the last election. 34 other political
parties shared the remainder of the votes. The excessive amount of small political parties
created vast amounts of wasted votes in the previous election of 1928, however, in the
1930 election there were fewer political parties on the ballot; therefore, there were less
wasted votes. Parties that did not secure a seat acquired 413,000 wasted votes. This
broad-based coalition government with polarized political ideologies created inefficiency
within the Weimar Republic.

59. Results
The 1930 German election drew 82% voter turn-out, an unprecedented event. The
incumbent political party, the Social Democratic Party (SPD), lead in the popular vote
and won 143 seats, a loss of 10 seats from the previous election. The National Socialist
German Workers Party (NSDAP) rose to the second largest party with 18.25% of the vote
and took home 107 seats, a remarkable additional 95 seats over the last election. The
only other party to gain seats was the Communist Party, which won 13.13% of the vote,
securing 77 seats, a gain of 23 additional seats than the last election. 34 other political
parties shared the remainder of the votes. The excessive amount of small political parties
created vast amounts of wasted votes in the previous election of 1928, however, in the
1930 election there were fewer political parties on the ballot; therefore, there were less
wasted votes. Parties that did not secure a seat acquired 413,000 wasted votes. This
broad-based coalition government with polarized political ideologies created inefficiency
within the Weimar Republic.

Federal elections were held in Germany on 31 July
1932, following the premature dissolution of the
Reichstag. They saw great gains by the Nazi Party,
which for the first time became the largest party in
parliament but without winning a majority.

61. The election campaign took place under violent circumstances, as Papen lifted the token ban on the
SA, the Nazi paramilitary, which Brüninghad banned during the last days of his administration.
That inevitably led to clashes with the communist paramilitants.
Since 1929, Germany had been suffering from the Great Depression as
unemployment rose from 8.5% to nearly 30% between 1929 and 1932, while industrial
production inside Germany dropped roughly 42%.
In March 1932, presidential elections pitted the incumbent Hindenburg, supported by pro-democratic
parties, against Hitler and communist Ernst Thälmann. Hitler gained roughly a third of the vote and was
thus defeated in the second round in April by Hindenburg, who gained a narrow majority.
However, Hindenburg at the end of May 1932 was persuaded to dismiss Brüningas chancellor, replacing
him with Franz von Papen, a renegade of the Centre Party, and a non-partisan "Cabinet of Barons".
Papen's cabinet had almost no support in parliament and only three days after his appointment, when
faced with the opposition, had Hindenburg dissolve the Reichstag and called for new elections, for 31
July, so that the Reichstag could not dismiss him immediately

62. German federal election, November 1932
Federal elections were held in Germany on 6 November 1932. They saw a significant drop in votes for the Nazi Party
and increases for the Communists and the national conservative DNVP. It was the last free and fair all-German election
before the Nazi seizure of power on 30 January 1933, as the following elections of March 1933 were already
accompanied by massive suppression, especially against Communist and Social Democratic politicians. The next free
election was not held until August 1949 in West Germany; the next free all-German elections took place in December
1990 after reunification.
The results of the November 1932 election were a great disappointment for the Nazis. Although they emerged once
more as the largest party by far, they had fewer seats than before, and failed to form a government coalition in the
Reichstag parliament. So far Chancellor Franz von Papen, a former member of the Catholic Centre Party, had governed
without parliamentary support relying on legislative decrees promulgated by Reich President Paul von Hindenburg
according to Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution. However, on 12 September 1932 Papen had to ask Hindenburg to
dissolve the parliament in order to preempt a motion of no confidence tabled by the Communist Party, which was
expected to pass (since the Nazis were expected to vote in favour, as they also desired new elections). Thus, the election
of November 1932 was held following this dissolution of parliament in September. The DNVP, which had backed Papen,
gained 15 seats as a result.
After the election, Chancellor Papen urged Hindenburg to continue to govern by emergency decrees. Nevertheless, on 3
December he was superseded by his DefenceMinister Kurt von Schleicher who in talks with the left wing of the Nazi
Party led by Gregor Strasser tried to build up a Third Position (Querfront) strategy. These plans failed when in turn
Hitler disempowered Strasser and approached Papen for coalition talks. Papen obtained Hindenburg's consent to form
the Hitler Cabinet on 30 January 1933.

64. German federal election, March 1933
Federal elections were held in Germany on 5 March 1933, after the Nazi seizure of power and just six days after the
Reichstag fire. Nazi stormtroopers had unleashed a campaign of violence against the Communist Party (KPD), left-
wingers, trade unionists, the Social Democratic Party of Germany, and the centre-right Catholic Centre Party. They
were the last multi-party elections in a unified Germany until 1990.
The 1933 election followed the previous year's two elections (July and November) and Hitler's appointment as
Chancellor. In the months before the 1933 election, brownshirtsand SS displayed "terror, repression and propaganda
across the land", and Nazi organizations "monitored" the vote process. In Prussia 50,000 members of the SS, SA and
Stahlhelmwere ordered to monitor the votes by acting Interior Minister Hermann Göring, as auxiliary police.
The Nazis registered a large increase in votes in 1933. However, despite waging a campaign of terror against their
opponents, the Nazis only tallied 43.9 percent of the vote, well short of a majority. They needed the votes of their
coalition partner, the German National People's Party (DNVP), for a bare working majority in the Reichstag.
This would be the last contested election held in Germany before World War II. Two weeks after the election, Hitler
was able to pass an Enabling Act on 23 March with the support of all non-socialist parties, which effectively gave
Hitler dictatorial powers. Within months, the Nazis banned all other parties, dissolved the Reichstag and replaced it
with a rubberstamp legislature comprising only Nazis and pro-Nazi "guests."

66. German election and referendum, 1936
Parliamentary elections were held in Germany on 29 March 1936. They took the form of a single-question
referendum, asking voters whether they approved of the military occupation of the Rhineland and a single party
list for the new Reichstag composed exclusively of Nazis and nominally independent "guests" of the party. Like
previous elections in Nazi Germany, it was characterized by high turnout, voter intimidation and a massively lopsided
result, with an official 99.0% turnout. In a publicity stunt, a handful of voters were packed aboard the airships Graf
Zeppelin and Hindenburg, which flew above the Rhineland as those aboard cast their ballots.
Electoral slip from the constituency of Upper Swabia-Bavaria, Hitler's home constituency, with seven prearranged
candidates. Voters only had to accept or dismiss this option, as no other lists were available.
This was the first German election held after enactment of the Nuremberg Laws, which had removed citizenship rights
(including the right to vote) from Jews and other ethnic minorities. In the previous elections and referenda under Nazi
rule, Jews, Poles and other ethnic minorities had been allowed to vote without much interference, and even tacitly
encouraged to vote against the Nazis (especially in districts that were known to have large populations of ethnic
minorites). Their removal from the electoral process accounted for much of the large drop in invalid and negative votes,
which fell from over five million in 1934 to barely half a million in 1936. The Nazis also lowered the voting age, in large
part so as to ensure that the electorate was about the same size as in 1934.
The new Reichstag convened for formulary procedures on 30 January 1937 to re-elect its Presidium and Hermann Göring
as President of the Reichstag.

68. German election and referendum, 1938
Parliamentary elections were held in Germany (including recently annexed Austria) on 10 April 1938. They
were the final elections to the Reichstag during Nazi rule and took the form of a single-question referendum
asking whether voters approved of a single list of Nazis and pro-Nazi "guest" candidates for the 813-member
Reichstag as well as the recent annexation of Austria (the Anschluss). Turnout in the election was officially
99.5% with 98.9% voting "yes". In Austria official figures claimed 99.73% voted in favourwith a turnout
of 99.71%.
The elections were held largely to rally official support from the new Ostmark(Austrian) province, although
further elections for 41 seats were held in the recently annexed Sudetenland on 4 December. NSDAP
candidates and "guests" officially received 97.32% of the votes.
The new Reichstag, the last of the German Reich, convened for the first time on 30 January 1939, electing a
presidium headed by incumbent President of the Reichstag Hermann Göring. It convened only a further seven
times, the last on 26 July 1942. On 25 January 1943, Hitler postponed elections for a new Reichstag until after
the war, with the inaugural to take place after another electoral term, subsequently on 30 January 1947—by
which point the body, and the Nazi state, had ceased to exist.

69. Ballot for the Sudeten election,
carried out on 5 December
after the annexation of the

last election under Nazi rule.
Ballot reading: "Do you approve of the reunification of Austria
with the German reichaccomplished on 13 March 1938 and
do you vote for the list of our Führer, Adolf Hitler?"

70. Adolf Hitler 20 April 1889 –30 April 1945 was a German politician
who was the leader of the Nazi Party (NSDAP), Chancellor of Germany
from 1933 to 1945 and Führer ("Leader") of Nazi Germany from 1934
to 1945. As dictator, Hitler initiated World War II in Europe with the
invasion of Poland in September 1939, and was central to the
Holocaust.
Hitler was born in Austria—then part of Austria-Hungary—and was
raised near Linz. He moved to Germany in 1913 and was decorated
during his service in the German Army in World War I. In 1919, he
joined the German Workers' Party (DAP), the precursor of the NSDAP,
and was appointed leader of the NSDAP in 1921. In 1923, he attempted
to seize power in a failed coup in Munich and was imprisoned. While in
jail he dictated the first volume of his autobiography and political
manifesto Mein Kampf("My Struggle"). After his release from prison in
1924, Hitler gained popular support by attacking the Treaty of
Versailles and promoting Pan-Germanism, anti-semitismand anti-
communism with charismatic oratory and Nazi propaganda. He
frequently denounced international capitalism and communism as
being part of a Jewish conspiracy.

71. The Nazi regime was responsible for the
genocide of at least 5.5 million Jews and
millions of other victims whom he and his
followers deemed Untermenschen(sub-
humans) or socially undesirable. Hitler and
the Nazi regime were also responsible for
the killing of an estimated 19.3 million
civilians and prisoners of war. In addition,
29 million soldiers and civilians died as a
result of military action in the European
theatre. The number of civilians killed during
the Second World War was unprecedented in
warfare and the casualties constituted the
deadliest conflict in human history.

Other estimates of the size of the overall

Roger Casement of a population fall of
three million, although he notes that it is
"almost certainly an underestimate". Peter
Forbath gave a figure of at least 5 million
victims of the Congo Horrors, while John
Gunther also supports a 5 million figure
as a minimum death estimate and posits
8 million as the maximum.

98. Prosecution of Donald Trump
in New York
The People of the State of New York v. Donald J. Trump is a criminal case against Donald Trump, the 45th president of
the United States. Trump was charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records with the intent to commit
or conceal another crime, relating to payments made to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels to ensure her
silence about an alleged sexual encounter between them. The Manhattan District Attorney (DA) accused Trump of
falsifying these business records with the intent to violate federal campaign finance limits, unlawfully influence the
2016 U.S. presidential election, and commit tax fraud. The indictment, the first of a former U.S. president, was
approved by a Manhattan grand jury on March 30, 2023. On April 3, Trump traveled from his residence in Florida to
New York City, where he surrendered to the Manhattan DA's office and was arraigned the next day. Trump pleaded
not guilty and stated that he would continue to campaign for the 2024 presidential election if convicted.
The trial began on April 15, 2024. On April 30, Trump also became the first U.S. president to be held in criminal
contempt of court, due to comments he made earlier in the month about individuals involved with the trial.
Throughout proceedings, the defense made unsuccessful requests for the case to be delayed or dismissed, for the
judge to recuse himself, and for a mistrial. The prosecution argued that Trump's 2016 campaign sought to benefit
from the payment of hush money to Daniels through Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen, who was allegedly
reimbursed via a false retainer agreement.

99. Prosecution of Donald Trump
in New York
The prosecution rested on May 20, 2024, after calling 20 witnesses. The defense argued that Trump was unaware of any
allegedly unlawful scheme, that Cohen was unreliable as a witness, and that the retainer agreement between them was
valid. The defense rested on May 21 after calling two witnesses. Trump was convicted on May 30, 2024. The conviction
makes him the first U.S. president to have been convicted of a felony in any state or federal court. Sentencing is
scheduled for July 11, 2024.
Background
Stormy Daniels–Donald Trump scandal
In July 2006, Stormy Daniels, an American pornographic film actress, met Donald Trump at a celebrity golf tournament
in Nevada. At the time, Trump was the host of the reality TV series The Apprentice and was married to Melania Trump.
According to Daniels, Trump invited her to his penthouse at Harrah's Lake Tahoe where the two had sex and talked
about making her a guest on The Apprentice.
In 2011, Daniels considered selling the story to the celebrity magazine Life & Style for US$15,000 as Trump began
exploring a potential presidential bid. His lawyer, Michael Cohen, threatened to sue Life & Style when it asked the
Trump Organization for comment. Daniels' agent, Gina Rodriguez, leaked the story to the gossip blog The Dirty in
October. The post was taken down following complaints by Trump's lawyers, and Daniels disputed the story's veracity.
Cohen acknowledged during court testimony in May 2024 that he advised for the story's removal.

100. Prosecution of Donald Trump
in New York
As Trump's 2016 presidential campaign began, Rodriguez approached multiple publications—including the National
Enquirer—and attempted to sell the story. Following the publication of a controversial recording of Trump and Access
Hollywood host Billy Bush, the National Enquirer sought to suppress the story. Rather than paying Daniels, the
National Enquirer editor-in-chief Dylan Howard negotiated a $130,000 non-disclosure agreement between Daniels and
Michael Cohen. Cohen attempted to find the money as the election neared and repeatedly delayed her payment. Keith
Davidson, Daniels' lawyer, canceled the deal in October 2016. Ultimately, Cohen drew the money from his home equity
line of credit and sent it through a shell company incorporated in Delaware. Trump initially denied knowing about the
check made out to Daniels. In April 2018, aboard Air Force One, he told a reporter he did not know where Cohen got
the money. Rudy Giuliani, an attorney for Trump, refuted these claims in a Fox News interview, saying that Trump was
aware of the payments. Trump wrote several checks totaling $420,000 to Cohen. The checks reimbursed him for the
non-disclosure agreement and covered the costs for Cohen to manipulate online polls to boost Trump's status. The
$180,000 paid to Cohen was doubled to offset taxes, and $60,000 was added. These payments were made throughout
2017, during Trump's first year of presidency. The payments made to Cohen were declared as a legal expense. Nine
monthly checks from Trump to Cohen, dated April to December 2017, exist as evidence. In January 2018, The Wall
Street Journal reported on Cohen's payment to Daniels. Cohen pleaded guilty to eight criminal counts relating to the
payment—as well as another payment made to Karen McDougal—in August.

In his admission of guilt, Cohen stated that he acted "at the direction of a candidate for
federal office", implicating Trump. In December 2018, Cohen was sentenced to three years in
prison.
On May 2, 2024, The Daily Beast broke a story that Trump Organization chief financial officer
Allen Weisselberghad assisted the 2016 campaign with its finance reports.

Trump Organization and two of its executives. The office paused its inquiry when the office of the federal U.S. Attorney
for the Southern District of New York began a separate investigation into the payments, but the federal inquiry
concluded without charges in July 2019.
The Manhattan district attorney's office then issued a subpoena for the Trump Organization in August, seeking
documents relating to the payments. Additionally, the office subpoenaed accounting firm Mazars USA, demanding eight
years of Trump's corporate tax returns. Trump's lawyers sued Vance to block the subpoena, citing Trump's immunity
from criminal inquiries as the president of the United States. In Trump v. Vance, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 7–2 in
favor of Vance, allowing the subpoena to continue. Following the 2021 New York County District Attorney election, Alvin
Bragg succeeded Vance as the Manhattan District Attorney. In early 2021, Mark Pomerantz, a Manhattan prosecutor,
sought to revive the case under the theory that if Daniels had extorted Trump, the money would be criminal proceeds,
and efforts to conceal its source would constitute money laundering.

In March 2023, District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office indicated that an indictment was likely. By March 9, 2023,
prosecutors had offered Trump a chance to testify before the grand jury the following week, indicating that they were
likely preparing to indict him.
Trump has called the investigation a "witch hunt", claiming political persecution. The trial and accompanying political
theatrics have been described as a "circus" by the media.

The allegedly falsified documents are related to Trump's payment to Stormy Daniels as hush money. The payments
were listed in the business records as a legal expense payable to Michael Cohen, whereas the indictment alleges that
they were actually to reimburse Cohen for the earlier, allegedly illicit, payment to Daniels. Trump stated in an April 2023
Fox News interview with Tucker Carlson that he would not drop his candidacy if convicted.

Trump was arraigned on April 4, 2023. A law enforcement source told Reuters that police would close streets around
the courthouse in advance of Trump's expected appearance. On April 3, Trump flew from Palm Beach International
Airport into LaGuardia Airport on his private plane, and took his motorcade to Trump Tower, where he stayed the night.
Todd Blanche, a lawyer who had defended Paul Manafort during his 2016 fraud trial, had recently resigned from his law
firm to aid Trump's case. Police increased security in and around Manhattan ahead of the arraignment; authorities said
there were no credible threats of violence or organized plans of protests.
Immediately after the arraignment, Trump returned to Mar-a-Lago and addressed a crowd of supporters in the evening.
Trump made several false claims about topics such as his handling of government documents, District Attorney
Bragg, and the Trump–Raffenspergerphone call.

proceedings, including for prosecutors to provide discovery to
the defense. The court set a deadline of August 8, 2023, for pre-

Trump's lawyers maintained that he was unaware of any allegedly
unlawful schemes that his allies or associates may have engaged
in.
On September 29, 2023, Trump's team submitted omnibus
motions to dismiss the indictment and requesting clarification of
the charges.
On April 27, Trump's team had asked for the charges to be
explained in full. On February 15, 2024, the court denied the
motions to dismiss.
On May 26, prosecutors stated that they had informed Trump's
lawyers that evidence in the hush-money case includes various
audio recordings, including one of Trump and a witness.

On May 31, 2023, Trump's lawyers unsuccessfully filed a motion asking
Judge Merchanto disqualify himself because, according to the defense, the
judge and his family have supported the Democratic Party, including three
$10–15 donations of his to Democratic causes and his daughter's role as a
partner and COO of a Democratic consulting firm that serviced Biden's 2020
presidential campaign.
On April 6, Trump posted online that if arrested for violating the gag order,
he would consider it a "great honor" to "become a Modern Day Nelson
Mandela", the former South African president jailed for anti-apartheid
activism.
On March 18, Trump's team requested an additional delay on the basis that
pretrial publicity and apparent anti-Trump bias in Manhattan would prohibit
a fair jury from being selected in April, although only 35% in the cited poll
said they were convinced Trump was guilty in the DA's case specifically.

Also on May 14, United States Senator Tommy Tuberville called the gag order "ridiculous" for stopping Trump "from
having a say-so in his own trial"; Tuberville further said that members of Congress were attending the trial "to speak
our piece for President Trump" and "overcome this gag order", and he hoped that "more and more" members of
Congress would do so. Republican members of Congress, including Tuberville, J. D. Vance, Cory Mills, Nicole
Malliotakisand Speaker Mike Johnson, have criticized witness Michael Cohen, while Byron Donalds, Rick Scott,
Vance, and Johnson have criticized Merchan'sdaughter. New York magazine journalist Andrew Rice claimed that
during Cohen's May 13 testimony, he saw Trump penning revision notes as to statements about the case from his
Republican allies. On May 14, Trump commented that "I do have a lot of surrogates, and they're speaking very
beautifully."

Jury deliberations and verdict
On May 29, the jury began deliberations. A few hours in,
they asked to hear a readback of about 30 minutes of
testimony by Pecker and Cohen; the readback was held the
following day. It regarded an August 2015 meeting between
Pecker, Cohen, Trump, and Hicks, in which Pecker pledged
to be Trump's "eyes and ears" regarding negative stories
about him; additionally, the jury wanted to hear Pecker's
testimony regarding an alleged phone call from Trump in
which the two discussed a rumor that McDougal had gone
to another outlet to publish her story.
On May 30 at 5:07 pm EDT, Trump was found guilty on all 34
counts, making him the first former U.S. president to be
convicted of a felony. Merchandenied a defense motion for
an acquittal.

113. In terms of Nazi political success, the year 1933 was
pivotal. Traditionally, the leader of the party who held
the most seats in the Reichstag was appointed
Chancellor. However, President Paul von Hindenburg was
hesitant to appoint Hitler as chancellor. Following
several backroom negotiations —which included
industrialists, Hindenburg's son, the former chancellor
Franz von Papen, and Hitler—Hindenburg acquiesced and
on 30 January 1933, he formally appointed Adolf Hitler
as Germany's new chancellor. Although he was
chancellor, Hitler was not yet an absolute dictator.

122. The US's most dangerous President, a danger to democracy in the USA. Donald
Trump wants to turn the United States into a state similar to the one Hungary has
right now. Hungary has dismantled Democracy by changing laws on how to
appoint judges in the judiciary. It now happens with decisions from undemocratic
rules when the government partially appoints judges. Donald Trump wants to turn
back the historical clock towards a United States that becomes Authoritarian.
How far is revealed. Donald Trump has shamelessly mentioned that he just wants
to be a Dictator for a day. It shows the lack of respect for Democracy. No normal
advocate for Democracy would make jokes as distasteful as Donald Trump. The
population of the USA who voted and voted for Donald Trump is a shameful crowd
and similar to the one who voted for Adolf Hitler in 1933. The price around 60
million dead in the Second World War. During his presidency, Donald Trump has
lowered the world's perception of the United States and he has begun to attack
freedom of expression, the first thing a would-be dictator does is to silence the
media. The assassination and assassination attempt in 2024 against Donald
Trump was already expected in 2015. That he is a great danger to US and World
Democracy is quite clear.

123. Germany got its shameful electorate in 1933 and the US
got its in 2016 and may get more in that category in 2024.
Voting for Donald Trump is shameful and can be
compared to the mistakes of the German electorate.
