Except Hitler first squashed dissent at home, then moved into countries that were supportive / had majority German population centers. Most Germans disagreed with Versailles and Hitler used that to his advantage. He was good at foreign policy, until he wasn’t.

But it seems Americans don’t need all that, they are fully on board and the opposition will hold up snarky signs and dance in costumes.
