During<\/span> the election<\/span> campaign,<\/span> Alba<\/span> told<\/span> reporters<\/span> : “<\/span> I<\/span> am<\/span> a good<\/span> Hitler.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“When<\/span> I<\/span> was<\/span> a child,<\/span> I<\/span> perceived<\/span> it<\/span> as<\/span> a completely<\/span> normal<\/span> name,”<\/span> he<\/span> said<\/span> in<\/span> an<\/span> interview<\/span> with German<\/span> publication<\/span> Bild<\/span> in<\/span> 2020<\/span> .<\/span><\/p>\n
