90 years ago, prominent German physicist Albert Einstein, artist Kathe Kollwitz, writer Heinrich Mann, & others appealed for a unity coalition against the Nazi Party in coming elections. United the other parties could narrowly win. Divided Hitler would win. The opposition didn't unite.

If I recall from history, weren't the German communists, guided by Moscow, instrumental in not allowing a party coalition against Hitler to form?

The sole party that broke from the others and sided with the Nazis was the old Monarchist party that called for reinstating a kaiser. They held few seats, but just enough to give the Nazis what they needed.
