Considering that my grandparents on both sides never would have met unless WWII happened, I gotta say I’m personally a little alarmed by Jebby’s stance. I mean, I like existing!
I heard he’s already dead.
Poor Baby Hitler had a bowl cut…
A better, non violent alternative.
Go back to 1919. Befriend Hitler. Help him find a nice job, and match him up with a kind hearted fraulien. Maybe convince them to emigrate to England or the USA, or at least stay in Austria. Basically help him settle into a peaceful life. Everyone lives. Even Hitler ends up happy.
BTW, my mother’s parents were a Russian and a Pole who met in on a slave farm, and then emigrated to Australia after the war. So I wouldn’t be me either.
Hitler would never have come to power if WWI had ended in a marginal German victory.
Well, considering that it was the Spanish flu which ended the war, not really America’s entry into the war (we got just a bogged down as everyone else), maybe that’s what needed to be changed. So, time travelers, head on back with some flu vaccine, and all is good!
So he’d kill a foreign child?
I’d say that indicates he’s perfectly qualified to be US President.
Time travelling Drones…
On the other hand, we would have had the Ottoman Empire survive which would not have been a good thing considering they were genociding Armenian, Greek and Assyrian Christians at the time.
What was it we hate Hitler for again?
As always, Mr. CK has a take:
Let me get this straight. Jeb Bush is staunchly pro life. Yet he advocates murdering a an infant? Makes perfect sense.
I guess he’s one of those “fourth trimester abortion” supporters.
That sounds disturbingly like a response to my comment…
Can’t hear “Baby Hitler” without picturing this.
Why does everyone want to go back in time and kill Hitler? How come nobody wants to go back and help him get through art school? Or get some therapy? Just sayin.
In point of fact, no one did anything about Hitler until he started declaring war on his neighbors (and non-neighbors like the USA).
If he’d just killed the Jews, gypsies, gays, and Jehovah’s Witnesses within German borders, the rest of the world would have done as much to stop that as they did to stop Pol Pot, Mao, and Stalin.
My alternate history goal would be to avoid creating a Germany that felt it had to get revenge for the screwjob it suffered in 1919.
Here’s a point about Hitler: he’s judged very harshly by history, but he did kill Hitler.

Baby Hitler was really misunderstood – he was merely concerned about the health implications of beverages that have a high sugar content…
