President Hindenburg, influenced by the Camarilla, became increasingly estranged from Brüning and pushed his Chancellor to move the government in a decidedly authoritarian and right-wing direction.
Hindenburg appointed the nobleman Franz von Papen as chancellor, heading a "cabinet of barons".
Hindenburg at first accepted this, but after General Kurt von Schleicher and the military withdrew their support, Hindenburg instead dismissed Papen and appointed Schleicher, who promised he could secure a majority government by negotiations with both the Social Democrats, the trade unions, and dissidents from the Nazi party under Gregor Strasser.

Paul Ludwig Hans Anton von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg (Full name), is, today, the subject of much debate among modern historians.
These Historians maintain that Paul Hindenburg was a careful and long term plan in which Mr and Mrs von Hindenburg planned to have a child and name him Paul.
Other Historians take the Standpoint that Mr and Mrs Hindenburg did not plan to have a child, but was a result of rising tension in the household due to a vicious campaign of anti-lone child propaganda by the older Sister of von Hindenburg, Mary-Beth (Formerly Miss Arkansas).

 TIME.com: Hindenburg -- Mar. 22, 1926 -- Page 1
Only one soothing note was struck: the assertion that Germany's "will to enter the League alone," as epitomized in the inflexible person of her President, must triumph.
By chance, the President's great-grandfather received from his great-uncle (a von Hindenburg) certain landed estates, willed him only on condition that he add the comparatively "nouveau" title of "von Hindenburg" to his own illustrious one.
To them was born Paul, a deep-chested healthy infant, who inhaled the atmosphere of Prussian militarism with his first breath (1847).

1) Hitler’s appointment in 1933 by President Paul Ludwig Hans Anton von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg, a decorated Field Marshall in the Great War, was in response to the Nazis having gained a plurality in the Reichstag.
One could argue that Hitler’s appointment as chancellor was more in accordance with the electoral provisions of Weimar Germany than the adherence to the U.S. constitution by the Supreme Court when the five Republican appointees named Mr Bush president in the 5-4 charade of Bush v Gore (2000).
That is what happened when Hindenburg put Hitler in.
