    Sorry, you’re completely utterly wrong here. First, the Reichs:

    1. Reich: Holy Roman Empire (of the German Nation).
    2. Reich: (Unified) German Empire (1871-1918). → that’s the one they were referring to by wording, but not by implication.
    3. Reich: Nazi Germany (1933-1945). → contact an implication should make it clear they mean this one.

    The Weimar Republic took place between the second and the third Reich. It would’ve been a golden age of great prosperity if it weren’t for the Versailles contract and the Great Depression. It’s still had great economic achievements, which often get falsely attributed to Nazi Germany. You can be 100% sure that the Trump campaign doesn’t refer to this one. And please don’t conflate it with the 2nd Reich.

    Even though the wording seems to indicate the 1871 German Reich the wording unified Reich and the use of the term Reich in English make this a Nazi Bullhorn.
