Was FDR a Communist Sympathizer - Sarah Paine

[Bariom_dome]

I love how she says it like: it's common sense to not piss off your allies in war, even if you hate them.

Churchill, an avid anti-communist, said that if Hitler invaded Hell he would say good things about the devil when questioned about allying with Stalin (of course he was also quick to warn about what Stalin intended at the end of the war).

[mageover]

The failure of FDR to be sufficiently anti communist... Wow that's a loaded question if I've ever heard one. Her answer was great through.

[darvit]

I've watched the interview in ful. It's amazing to watch her answer these really leading questions with context and objectivity.

[literalsarcasm]

It's refreshing to hear from someone who actually knows how geopolitics work.

[dionysusthagod]

I think this lady is great, well spoken, educated, sensible and interesting to listen to. I would love to sit down and talk history with her some day, I've never heard of her prior to your video collaborations together but I am quickly becoming a fan of hers

[HH-jqgx]

She’s very smart and explains things in clear language. Would love to have dinner with her and listen.

The contrast between the pretend intelligence of the man asking the question and the actual intelligence in the women answering it is staggering

[DJDESERT]

I would’ve loved to have been taught history by this lady.

[mjbball]

She is wonderful. I could listen to someone with an expertise this vast all day.

“Failure to be anti-communist enough” what a ridiculous way to phrase that. He succeeded in maintaining good diplomatic relations with the USSR by treating them like an equal.

[BNOBLE]

Don't they understand the concept of having your current enemy and potential future enemy deplete each others strength, reducing your own losses considerably. The support for the USSR was to ensure they were able to stay in the fight, if the USSR lost or made a separate peace deal, then the western allies would have to deal with the Axis alone.

She’s a classical artist in the theater of politics and war. Bravo 👏 well done Mi Lady! She’s on point.

[BillHawkins]

I can listen to her talk all day. Common sense is so rare in our political elite. The words of the politicians today are so dumbed down and ridiculous. Her words are like a breath of fresh air.

[DrillPreacher]

That’s not being a communist, that’s just being pragmatic. In war you can’t always afford to be picky when it comes to your allies

[johnmcgoldrick]

Man, she is so sober it’s stinking refreshing.

[drjustin]

She is straight to the point, all facts no nonsense. She’s really interesting!

[grovermartin]

This woman is brilliant, and such a delight to listen to. Lucid, so well spoken, she has clearly spent years learning about and digesting more history of war than I can even imagine. Our naval college is privileged to have her.

[ofraggy]

i LOVE the way this lady transfers her knowledge.

[foreverofthestars]

This woman has such great knowledge and communicates it so clearly. She feels like a history version of Carl Sagan, calm, knowledgeable, and pleasant to listen to.
