Hitler also carried out everything he campaigned on. It's the appeal of a populist strongman, they actually do what they say they're gonna do.
The problematic part was all the extra stuff he didn't mention. When he said he would deal with the Jewish problem few people understood how far he would go. He was also beholden to big business despite his apparently socialist posturing.
I feel like it should be something along the lines of told/outspoken/self-proclaimed [socialism] as apparent would imply that his acts had the look of socialism, which was not really the case
