Not the “government”... the FDR perpetual machine politics, and all of his pals. He had to force the Rockefellers/Standard Oil to stop selling crucial additives to the Nazis- one small hugely important detail.
See: The Prize. This isn’t some leftist rambling— it is well researched.
One of the reasons the demonrat machine of the clintons and obamaumaos and the modern dnc can be favourably compared to the Leftist socialists of Germany. German socialism appeals to the demonrats (Left of center the Nazis were, and the Communists were further Left of them, and painted the Nazis as “right wing”. They never were, but they were supported by Krupps and Theissens and Quandts because they made labor problems of the commies... go away).
The history is quite clear on this, and one of the clever ruses the Soviets played was to create the idea that Nazis were right wing- when they were similar world socialists.
And don’t forget GHW Bush and his “New World Order” speech— that was a huge eye opener vs. Ronald Reagan.

And what’s wrong with that?
Sanctions against the Nazis? Heck, we’re doing the same thing today under Trump with North Korea and Iran.
I hope you’re not saying that we should have CONTINUED to allow Standard Oil to sell crucial additives to the Nazis.
