MODERATORS
No they didn't. This grandma is not 90+, so back in her day, Nazis were respected members of the US scientific community.
Or sipping cocktails on Argentinean beaches
And today, she probably is a Nazis. (Or at least, votes for them. That is to say, votes republican)
Operation Paperclip go brrrrrrrrrrrt
I think Nazis were respected members of society in the US before the war. And the theory goes US joined against Germany because they feared a takeover from within otherwise.
We joined wwII because of pearl harbor against the Japanese, the Nazis declared war on us after that.
I could be wrong though
Joined th eactual shooting war, yes, but Lend-Lease was already happening by then.
That’s different than the reason we joined ww2 though
