OK, so maybe you have Germany not invading Russia.
They didn't invade Russia completely.
And okay, but then you have them sailing across the Atlantic Ocean to invade America too, and then enforce their language on it.
Like, okay, it's ridiculous.
It was never going to happen.
But at the same time, you could go, hey, I mean, you know, look, they did conquer a lot of areas, right?
Like Germany did, you know,
conquer france and uh and um you know austria and czechoslovakia and poland and they did invade russia and they did you know i think they were winning the fighting in russia at the very beginning of it so like okay you could at least build a narrative there that like well they're taking over okay maybe i'm exaggerating that everyone would be speaking german but maybe more people would be um
Donald Trump trying to convince you that Iran was about to nuke the entire world when not only did they not have a deliverable bomb, they didn't have a bomb.
