Answer 1

He used his position as chancellor to gain more power and eventually became the dictator of Germany. He used propaganda and intimidation tactics, as well as scapegoating Jewish people and other minorities, to rally support and maintain control over the population. In 1933, he gained emergency powers after the Reichstag fire and used them to consolidate his power. He then abolished democracy, banned political parties, and created a totalitarian state.
