Blitzkrieg is not a Nazi strategy Germany had already been fighting WWI like that, or at least tried its hardest to do that, they used the term Bewegungskrieg (manoeuvre warfare) to contrast Stellungskrieg (trench warfare), that's all there is to it. The German preference for decisive battles over wars of attrition dates back to at least Moltke the Elder, whence also Auftragstaktik (mission command) and "no plan survives first contact with the enemy".
Then, the Nazis were way more deliberate and careful when taking over state institutions. And yes they did care about popular opinion that's why they e.g. switched over to nabbing Jews in quiet instead of publicly making a show out of it didn't play well with the population. Trump with Nazi strategy would be saying "We'll re-take Cuba, get rid of socialism, and turn it into a beach resort and every American will be able to go to state-sponsored holidays there". Like this, but bigger.
It's kinda weird to say this as a German but when I look at other countries' fascists they're a clownshow. Nazis of course are also self-destructive, fascism inherently is, but there's a fierce edge of competency in their madness.
That Signal leak? Under the Nazis, heads would be rolling, they would have no qualms bending actual incompetence into high treason to make an example to enforce discipline.
Yeah; this is exactly what I was trying to get at.
