    What makes you think that? Nazi Germany was very interested in science and engineering, at least in the disciplines that develop weapons.

      So interested they declared quantum physics an anti-Arian idea that should be exterminated and forced almost everybody with any knowledge that could help in making a nuclear weapon out of the country…

      They ousted all Jewish and all politically non-compliant scientists. They were interested in science, that’s true, and according to their world view, eliminating “inferior” scientist should have enhanced the quality of the science done by “superior pure blooded Aryan Übermenschen”.

      While still being pro-science, they did cripple their scientific community on ideologic grounds. The communist regimes did the same.

      MAGA being outright anti-science, the effect will be far more devastating.
