Here’s a copy and paste from the 1933 article:
Rise in Stocks Reflects Confidence He Will Not Disrupt Nation’s Affairs
Berlin is settling down to pass judgment on political developments. Politicians, economists and bankers declare there is usually wide discrepancy between the speeches of opposition politicians and the actions of the group when it gains power.
Consequently, it is not believed that Hitler will accomplish a change in the constitution or that [Reich Minister of Economics Alfred] Hugenberg will bring about a general reduction of interest rates. The government wants to obtain an adjournment of the Reichstag for several months, but it is questionable whether the Centre [Party] will approve of such action.
His presidency was more like these prior administrations as well.
Trump is not a unique aberration in American politics. He’s a continuation of a historical trend.
I don’t know man, I fail to recall anyone else being as spectaculary unpredictable and insane, who’s made objective truth a concept of the past.
Trump vs Truth
He’s just completely fucking insane, genuinely. His speech is weird gibberish and he can’t finish a single fucking thought.
You must have a good reason for having such a high criteria for what constitutes “an aberration”.

Literally Nixonian foreign policy to behave unpredictable and insane.
Bruh.
Emphasis on "tried to make them think that… "
This man isn’t pretending to be insane. Nixon, while a total crook, still had the ability to speak coherently.
An iPhone would be a more coherent president.
Fuck that fud, Trump isn’t pretending to be insane. He is.
If you want an example of a politician pretending to be stupid as a genuine political tactic, look at Boris Johnson.
