a communist germany

so the year is 1933, and the settng is a very unstable German. they are still paying reparations to the victors of the first world war, and their economy is in freefall. cue adolf Hitler's Nazi party, the party that many germans believed could save them from this crisis. however, in this alternate history timeline, the Nazis were themselves in dissaray. having lost their middle class voters in Berlin after the jewish lawyer Hans Litten convicted a large number of Nazi brownshirts on various assault charges. with no middle class vote, the power struggle for the german reichstag was thrown open for a new force, the communist KPD party, led by Paul Levi. German voters were hungry for a radical new approach to politics and, seeing what communism had done for the soviet union, voted the KPD into power in the 1933 elections. so, germany is under communist control, and the new chancellor Paul Levi begins his reign. so i would like to know your thoughts on what happens next...

The Reichswehr boots him out with national support, which won't be all that hard to get since the mans 1) a Communist, 2) a Jew, 3) a zombie.

It's borderline ASB for Germany to go Red in the interwar period, much less with a POD this late.

ok so Levi is kicked out, but the soviets are angry, and briton and france are not amused that the reichswehr have kicked out the chancellor.
so germany condemned internationally, another election is held. no communists, who would win this election

Do you think its possible for Germany to go Communist if the October Revolution fails? I think there's a significant possibility of that happening, as there would be less animosity among the German working and lower-middle class towards Communism, especially Spartacists as opposed to the terrors of Marxist-Leninism.
