The Nazi's increase their popularity be appearing to be the answer to all the problems that had arisen, promising employment, a united Germany and The used the Jew's as scapegoat for the economic problems through propaganda and then in their policies promised to control Jews and immigration and to return the money and jobs to the German people. Furthermore, Hitler was a charismatic leader, an effective public speaker. He told Germany what they wanted to hear in a way all German's could understand. This alongside the propaganda and the radio and newspaper entries lead for an increase in popularity in the Nazi party. It's not a surprise that Germany thought Nazi's would answer all their problems.
