The irony of this is that Hitler did have good business connections. Fascism cannot rise to power without strong support of big industry. Trump is trying to forge similar connections with the oil industry currently, offering to slash environmental regulations in exchange for a big campaign donation.

Good thing the rest of the world isn't as oil thirsty as the US

Comparatively no, people drive about half the miles on year per average in europe and there are more households without cars.

Also less consumption per capita

And then for developing nations it's not even close

I live in a medium sized town in South America, and everywhere i go is by pedal. 🚴‍♂️

I only use transport whenever i need to travel outside of town.

And i'll probably only own a car when i have a family 🚗

Idk why but the emojis make this comment 1000 percent better. It reads like a picture book. The only way this comment could be better is if it said "Beep beep!" at the end.

Is that really forging connections or is it just directly asking them for a bribe?

Both. Hitler did the same thing with the big businesses at the time. He promised them greater profits and reduced regulations in exchange for their support.
