Suppose Hitler was assassinated in early September 1934? More specifically, say an SA member somehow manages to sneak a gun* to this famous rally, then just when Hitler denies his involvement in the Night of the Long Knives**, this guy shouts out "Liar!", and shoots, successfully hitting him.
Does Goering succeed Hitler, someone else, or is there a new leadership structure? Can the Nazis even keep the government together with this happening so soon after Hindenburg's death? And of course, will there still be a war? And how are the fate of the jews and other minority groups (e.g. gypsies, etc) different? Are the Nuremburg laws still happening, for example? I can certainly understand there being similarities to this thread...
*please note "somehow manages" entails the plausibility of this aspect to be put aside
**in linked video at 7:55; "Only a lunatic or a deliberate liar could think that I or anybody would ever intend to dissolve what we ourselves have built over many long years".
