I didn’t say that he would become Hitler, but he would accelerate the fall into fascism to light speed

The chancellor of Germany also did not hold as much power as it did until Hitler began consolidating his base and his outreach, quickly destroying any and all threats and checks to his control. While this was “illegal” no one cared because he was an extremely charismatic and excellent orator that could mobilize his followers to do anything.

That sounds eerily similar to what he might attempt.
