Hitler’s Terrible Tariffs

One would think this is relevant... but if one does think... its absurd.
The Treaty of Versailles and the effects of the war left Germany is a terrible economic state. Many historians (I agree with them) believe this as well as the hyper-inflation set up Germany for a strong man like Hitler to rise to power.
Its true Trump is a strong man type character. He is not Hitler and this is not pre WW2 Germany. These comparisons are designed to scare the left and moderates into a frenzy. I think they just have ran out of ideas and Hitler and fear are all they have left.
I'm not a fan of the tariff policy nor tariffs at all but the hypocrisy on both sides in the US is getting ridiculous.
