        He's a nazi scientist who is now employed by amerikkka in the movie

        Yes - in the movie he is a former Nazi scientist who is the President's advisor and quite ecstatic about the prospect of nuclear war:

        After making calculations with a circular slide rule, he proposes an idea for a 100-year plan for survival. Life can continue underground until the radioactivity diminishes. But he couldn't stop himself when he accidentally calls the President "Mein Fuehrer" while dreaming of an underground bunker world populated by "top government and military men" after the impending apocalypse, with a male to female ratio of 1pineapple-surf

        He is modelled on a range of US German ghouls like Kissinger and von Braun.
