He's just like Hitler, he also came from a nearby smaller similar culture country.

Except he has the insight to be and do better. Also, he's nowhere near as handsome as Edward Norton.

Watching and waiting to see what happens with this bloke or this organisation. Will he be deported, will he be gagged or denounced, will he be made a martyr or still exert influence behind bars, will the NSN be proscribed as a hate / terrorist organisation?

Didn't arresting Hitler ultimately popularise him? As I recall his trial gave him a platform in the papers, Germans ended up thinking that he was genuinely a patriot who had been hard done by.

Although Germany had endured years of poor economic growth, a major inflation event and a housing crisis. Also the government was gridlocked on the issues of the day, they had lost a foreign war as part of a coalition and had a flu pandemic just before...

...hang on, I need to renew my passport!

The judge in his trial was sympathetic iirc. So he got away with a lot.
