The flowering of American Nazism is far more dangerous today than in the 1930's, because it's being spread by a former President. Trump's invasion / infestation / vermin framing of social, political, and economic conflict is straight-up Nazi. Just google to view the vile Nazi propaganda film, "Der Ewige Jude," which, sadly, is not difficult to find. If shown at a Trump rally, it would likely receive a standing ovation. As repugnant as this film is, anyone concerned about contemporary American politics needs to understand its roots. For the same reason, I recommend reading "Mein Kampf."
The concepts and institutions of American slavery were inspiring and instructive to Hitler. Today, Nazi concepts and policies are, in turn, being revived by Trump and his followers. Monstrous racialized politics has merely ebbed and flowed in slightly different forms in different precincts of Western civilization for 400 years. It has never disappeared.
