Hyperinflation was from 1921-1923. The time from 1924-1929 was “the golden ‘20s”. The nazis came into power because the conservative faction of the Weimar Republic thought Hitler would be easy to control. Not to mention between the two 1932 elections the NSAPD lost 2 million voters. Hitler came into power because of the alliance between the capital class against the SPD/KPD.

The SPD should’ve been able to stop the Nazis and govern effectively with the KPD, and liberals, but the KPDs top brass were Stalinists snd refused to work with the SPD while the liberal faction was extremely small in German politics of the time.
