True, but the left in America was largely irrelevant at that time.
Except they ran the government.
Wow, that is way off. The leftists were behind the antiwar movement and they kept us out of the war until Hitler attacked Stalin and then they pushed us into total war. I suggest you read a little bit more about left ism in America pre-World War II.
Hell, there were leftist riots in my home state of Montana in 1914 that had to be put down by the National Guard.

The Left was massive at that time.
Or have you forgotten, McCarthy, Hiss, etc.?
