Also, speaking as a historian, I understood you were making a rhetorical point, not professing a 1:1 relationship. Because I know how these things work.
In 1938 British publishing c opinion was against war, for peace any price. Chamberlain took Hitler at his word and when it was obvious he had lied he prepared for war. UK public opinion did too. And in those remaining months of 1939, the RAF was built up and the Enigma code breakers were readied.
There are different views on 'appeasement.' As for Harris validating Trump's win, it reminds me more of when Weimar Germany released Hitler from prison in 1925 and let him reorganize the Nazis.
