3. I see a lot of votes for 'kill Hitler'

but I'm not convinced it could have prevented WW2 & the holocaust. The climate was ripe for revolution in the aftermath of WW1, and in the absence of Hitler, I'm convinced that some other permutation of nazism would have filled the void - perhaps led by someone who managed to avoid the poor decisions that Hitler made, making the victory over fascism much less certain. Even now, I wonder whether the outcome of WW2 was merely a shuffling of the deckchairs on the Titanic regarding the defeat of fascism.

4. It might have been easier to fight if not for a rabble rouser

whipping up their deplorables.

5. Or led by someone even more crazy

I think you're post is spot on Cirque, less of a megalomaniac but just as (for lack of a better word) evil would probably have been worse.
