The US is following the playbook by the letter. The biggest difference between nascent Nazi Germany and the US today? We've had 80+ years to build up military power which we'll use to crush any who stand against us, while Germany was still fighting against crippling debt and hoping not to generate too much notice as they built up their military power. While the Nazi's had to coax, cajole, and bully the media into speaking or reporting on them favorably, this administration has managed to get the media to eagerly accede to demands that haven't been made. The government shuts down, President ~~Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho~~ Mayor McCheese will declare a state of emergency that includes the criminalization of the opposition party for causing the shutdown, then he'll cite whatever war Secretary ~~He~~Pronoun Removed-Man has started as the reason for a full martial law implementation and the military annexation of Canada for "Secure the Borders!". In this scenario US=Germany, Canada=Poland, and we just skip the Sudetenland and The Anschluss (though to the administration, they'll expect that the annexation of Canada will equate to The Anschluss) and go right to the need for "Lebensraum"
