Hitler would be quite different.
Indeed, the Shakesheave of TTL would be very, very different from OTL's Hitler.
What this means is, most likely, not Senator Shakesheave, Racist Extraordinarie, but rather no Reichskanzler Hitler.
I thought that This Hitler ie Shakesheave would be a Marxist Democrat. He would lead a Populist movement and become a champion of Veteran Rights.
Well i thought that he would always be a natural orator. How about this.
After serving in the Army after the Great War, he gets a Factory job and settles down. After the depression he ends up living in a Hooverville in Central Park. He becomes a huge anti-Government type until Roosevelt. He becomes a huge supporter of FDR and La Guardia. He lives out the War in America. After the defeat of the Japanese in the Japanese-American War he becomes involved in the Anti-Communist Campaign of Senator McCarthy and runs on a Anti Communist Campaign in New Yorks 18th District to become a Democratic Congressman. In Congress he becomes known as a White Congressman to a growing Black District. In the 1960 Congressional elections he was voted out of Office. More on this later
He becomes an architecture student of Frank Lloyd Wright. Wright notices his talent for oratory and recommends he take an acting class. (This worked out quite well for Anthony Quinn in OTL). He goes on to star in such pictures as "The Guns of Navrone" about the unsuccessful plot to kill Chancellor Goebbels in WWII. Later he enters politics and after losing twice to Reagan for Governor of CA later narrowly defeats him to become President in 1980.
