..aye. And it's 13,518,250, if you accept the lowest estimate on
der Adolf.
Yes, it _can_ be argued "Trump was stopped in time.", if you accept
the idea that half a million dead is a silly prank. Or 25,495,692+.
Adolf Hitler is bad, but not the worst genocider in human history:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_and_anthropogenic_disasters_by_death_toll#List_of_political_leaders_and_regimes_by_death_toll

..having watched well over 200 million die from pollusion in water,
air, and in the food supply, starvation, the absence of clean
affordable heat and energy and the climate collapsing since 1998
when the Norwegian government (or Statoil/"Equinor"?) stopped me
from making a business out of my own thermochemical gasification
technology that should have landed me about 15% of the global energy
market making cheap clean water, heat, electricity and carbon for
terra preta type syntetic farmland soils out of common municipal
solid etc waste, and cut about a 1/3 of carbon emmissions by
outcompeting fossil fuels on price alone, I respectfully disagree
Adolf Hitler is that much worse than Donald J. Trump, they are both
genociders under both International and American Law:

http://www.religioustolerance.org/genocide.htm
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide_Convention
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide

..at least 6 refuge children died in Trump's border camps,
and it only takes one death to convict him and his regime
for genocide under 18 U.S. Code § 1091(b)(1) or (2).

..did you know Holocoust true start was the 1927 "Sigøinerparagraf"
put into law by the Norw. parliament?

..as stated above, I respectfully disagree.
