Hitler was able to gain power due to the increasingly unstable Germany left by the Wall St Crash and Stresemann's death when the US removed monetary support during recession. This gained Hitler upport from the disallusioned German people and saw him elected Chancellor. To cement his position he still faced a threat fom Communism, so hd used the arson attack on the Reichstag to ban the KPD and turn public opinion against Commnism. Due to the fire, he forced though the enabling act which allowed one man (Hindenburg) to rule Germany, controlled by Htler. In order to gain full support he needed military backing so he had the mlitant SAleader Rohm murdered snd disbanded the SA, replacing it with the SS. This caused the army, who hated Rohm, to support and trust Hitler. The final act Hitler needed to gain control was the president's office, so upon Hindenburg's death in 1934, wth Germany in a state of emergecy, he decreed an election wasn't necessary and declared himself President and Fuhrer of the Third Reich of Germamy

Germany had massive debt after WWI and the country needed a leader. Hitler stepped up and promised great things and did begin to lead them to moderate prosperity. This caused the people to put full trust in Hitler giving him all that he needed to take over.
