Well, Germany being run by a chicken farmer is perhaps less odd than having it run by an Austrian born corporal/failed paintor...
Of course, Himmler was not a good public speaker nor a charismatic man, nor an intelligent man...he was a crazy fanatical follower, dumb as a bag of hammers and crazy as a bag filled with rabid badgers...not exactly leadership material...
Depends on how far the Nazis got, and if others joined in in the chaos. If it's just a somewhat larger beerhall putsch with only one group involved, it wouldn't be much of a justification.If Himmler were head of the NSDAP and Hitler head of the SS then the Nazis wouldn't come to power. Himmler didn't have a fraction of Hitler's charisma.
My guess is that without much hope of taking power by legal means, Rohm and the SA try to launch a coup, the Reichswehr would put it down and we might see a right-wing military dictatorship imposed to " preserve order."

I think its more likely that Himmler's Holocaust would make OTL look like the actions of some overaggressive officers. Himmler made Hitler look like von Neumann in terms of rationality.so pretty much nazi Germany just without the holocaust?
