    The US would have tripped over themselves to join the Nazis and eventually ruled by the Nazis if Trump was in charge instead of Roosevelt during WW2.

      They still swing cock about saving the day meanwhile they showed up late because they were on the fence between joining and which side.

      Now they choose the other side clearly and still go watch Captain America in theatres.

        I’m pretty sure that’s not the case.

        After Japan invaded China and Germany invaded Poland, Roosevelt provided aid to China, Great Britain, and France, but the Neutrality Acts prevented the United States from becoming closely involved. After the Fall of France in June 1940, Roosevelt increased aid to the British and began to build up American military power.

        The motivation for the late US entry into the war was isolationism and not wanting to get dragged into another war in Europe, not sympathy for the Nazis.

        They do, but there was a lot of complaining when they made captain America black.

        And they don’t understand that Captain America would be against everything that they stand for.

      If Trump were picking a side in the civil war, it would be the side that lets him keep the slaves he most certainly would have owned.

      Had he been in charge of the Confederacy, maybe they would have surrendered a lot more quickly.
