Given that Trump compared himself to Hitler it's probably appropriate, but the NSDAP, the 'Nationalsozialistische Bewegung', Hitler and by extension the entire German populace committed crimes in orders of magnitude and inhumanity bigger than what Republicans, MAGA movement, Trump and US-Americans are dreaming about. That is not to say that the MAGA movement doesn't have the potential for genocidal intent, but they don't have industrial gas chambers with attached ovens yet.
