First commenter - what I meant was that, if you killed Hitler, Reagan would never be president at all because the whole timeline would be so different.

Of course there's no way to tell what would butterfly up instead. That's butterflies for you.

I don't think that's necessarily the case. There's too many variables at play.

It's not impossible that Ronald Reagan would become president, but he wouldn't be particularly more likely than any other charismatic political figure of the time. More importantly the circumstances, meaning and effect of him becoming president would undoubtedly be entirely different.

I think the main issue I have with this is that, even if he doesn't become president in this particular timeline, I think you're overstating the impact that Hitler had on conservative ideology. The New Deal was not enacted because of Hitler. Great Society programs were not enacted because of Hitler. Communism did not develop because of Hitler. Fascism didn't even develop because of Hitler! There are so many other factors that went into the neocon movement; tying it to one man doesn't make sense.

No one is saying that conservatism wouldn't exist without Hitler.
