If he was so despised in his earlier attempts, how did Hitler come to rule Germany?

Answer 1

The son of Alois Hitler (1837—1903), an Austrian customs official, Adolf Hitler dropped out of high school, and after his mother's death in 1907 moved to Vienna. He twice failed the admission examination for the academy of arts. His vicious anti-Semitism (perhaps influenced by that of Karl Lueger) and political harangues drove many acquaintances away. In 1913 he settled in Munich, and on the outbreak of World War I he joined the Bavarian army. During the war he was gassed and wounded; a corporal, he received the Iron Cross for bravery. The war hardened his extreme nationalism, and he blamed the German defeat on betrayal by Jews and Marxists. Upon his return to Munich he joined a handful of other nationalistic veterans in the German Workers' party.

In 1920 the German Workers' party was renamed the National Socialist German Workers, or Nazi, party; in 1921 it was reorganized with Hitler as chairman. He made it a paramilitary organization and won the support of such prominent nationalists as Field Marshal Ludendorff. On Nov. 8, 1923, Hitler attempted the "beer-hall putsch," intended to overthrow the republican government. Leading Bavarian officials (themselves discontented nationalists) were surrounded at a meeting in a Munich beer hall by the Nazi militia, or storm troopers, and made to swear loyalty to this "revolution." On regaining their freedom they used the Reichswehr [army] to defeat the coup. Hitler fled, but was soon arrested and sentenced to five years in the Landsberg fortress. He served nine months.

The putsch made Hitler known throughout Germany. In prison he dictated to Rudolf Hess the turgid Mein Kampf [my struggle], filled with anti-Semitic outpourings, worship of power, disdain for civil morality, and strategy for world domination. It became the bible of National Socialism. Under the tutelage of Hitler and Gregor Strasser, aided by Josef Goebbels and from 1928 by Hermann Goering, the party grew slowly until the economic depression, beginning in 1929, brought it mass support.

To Germans burdened by reparations payments to the victors of World War I, and threatened by hyperinflation, political chaos, and a possible Communist takeover, Hitler, frenzied yet magnetic, offered scapegoats and solutions. To the economically depressed he promised to despoil "Jew financiers," to workers he promised security. He gained the financial support of bankers and industrialists with his virulent anti-Communism and promises to control trade unionism.

Hitler had a keen and sinister insight into mass psychology, and he was a master of intrigue and maneuver. After acquiring German citizenship through the state of Brunswick, he ran in the presidential elections of 1932, losing to the popular war hero Paul von Hindenburg but strengthening his position by falsely promising to support Chancellor Franz von Papen, who lifted the ban on the storm troops (June, 1932).

When the Nazis were elected the largest party in the Reichstag (July, 1932), Hindenburg offered Hitler a subordinate position in the cabinet. Hitler held out for the chief post and for sweeping powers. The chancellorship went instead to Kurt von Schleicher, who resigned on Jan. 28, 1933. Amid collapsing parliamentary government and pitched battles between Nazis and Communists, Hindenburg, on the urging of von Papen, called Hitler to be chancellor of a coalition cabinet, refusing him extraordinary powers. Supported by Alfred Hugenberg, Hitler took office on Jan. 30.

Answer 2

What made the biggest difference was that the economic situation had worsened. Between the depression and war reparations the German economy was in the dumps.

Also a major factor was that Hitler began to concentrate on what he did best. That is, rousing up crowds and spouting ideology. In his early attempt he tried to lead militarily and he failed.

As quoted within the Christian bible, Deuteronomy 20:14, 20:15, 20:sixteen, 20:17 especially. This is the complete passage so it's not taken out of context. To read extra, please comply with the hyperlink within the supply reference. 10 When you march as much as attack a town, make its persons an present of peace. eleven If they accept and open their gates, all the persons in it shall be area to compelled labor and shall be just right for you. 12 If they do not want to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that town. thirteen When the LORD your God can provide it into your hand, positioned to the sword all the guys in it. 14 As for the ladies, the kids, the cattle and the whole thing else within the town, you may take those as plunder for yourselves.

Angels are the potent army of God: Kings 19:35 That night time the angel of the LORD went out and positioned to death a hundred and 80-5 thousand guys within the Assyrian camp. When the persons acquired up the following morning—there have been all the dead our bodies! Chronicles 21:14 So the LORD despatched a plague on Israel, and seventy thousand guys of Israel fell dead.

Isaiah 37:36 Then the angel of the LORD went out and positioned to death a hundred and 80-5 thousand guys within the Assyrian camp. When the persons acquired up the following morning—there have been all the dead our bodies! 37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He again to Nineveh and stayed there. Yes, please do read the bible. If anybody cares to read it from duvet to hide, they'll detect that CHRISTians are now not Old Testamentians. Thank God for that!
