Support for Hitler was not uncommon, he seemed to get the economy re-started, build roads etc. If you ask for REF here.. then I think you ought to ask for REF

If you ask for REF here.. then I think you ought to ask for REF when people say there were anti as well..
- croon 6y agoThat the US was anti-Hitler at least at one point is proven by the fact that it was politically feasible to go to war against Germany when they weren't a direct threat across the pond. If there is a suggestion that they were at some point pro-Hitler that needs to be supported by something. The alternative is otherwise the default assertion.
- cafard 6y agoQuite, though in fairness one might add that Hitler declared war on the US. However, at that point there had been something close to war going on between the US and German navies for a while.
- gwd 6y agoSorry, I should have quoted more. There were absolutely Americans who were pro-Hilter. The reference I wanted was that people in America favored Hitler because "[the] idea of someone uniting Europe was appealing". I certainly think a lot of people thought the Versaille Treaty was unfair, and were in favor of Germany being rebuilt and so on. I have a hard time believing that there were many Americans who thought the German Empire of Europe would be a good idea.
