Nazi Germany if Hitler had stayed *relatively* rational?

[The Lone Centurion]

As we all know, the Austrian Corporal was a bit more in touch with reality in 1933-34 than in 1944-45.

*handwave*

What if he had somehow stayed that way?

Effects?

Who does he back in this timeline, Rohm and the SA or does he still court the establishment?

Couldn't you say the same about him in '39 relative to '44?

Perhaps he lets his Generals have free reign, but I don't see how it could do much more than prolong the inevitable.

So what you're asking is if the institutional madness is the only thing at play? Same bloody thing, thanks for asking. Hitler didn't really fall off the rocker until '41 when he backed the Japanese, and even if he didn't the writing wasn't on the wall, it was the wall.
