A massively powerful Nazi war machine with the wind at its back. And trust me, he says to Roosevelt, you'd rather deal with me. You'd rather give me some battered old chips, a bit of cash. Give that stuff to me now, because otherwise you're going to be fighting Hitler and it's going to be bad.

Das ist eine tolle Frage. Das ist etwas, worüber ich nicht genug denke. Roosevelt hatte ein riesiges Problem. Wie du sagst, du hast das Faktum gequotet. Die Amerikaner wollten nicht gegen Hitler in 1940 in die Waffe gehen. Und verständlich. Wenn ich auf der Beachtür der Great Cemetery auf der Omaha Beach Day schaue, und ich da rumlaufe, sehe ich 19-jährige Kinder aus Omaha.

And I think, what are they doing here so far from home? Like, it's hard. This is a hard thing to sell to people, right? So I respect the American people and their desire to stay out of trouble. If I lived in the middle of America, you bet I wouldn't be clamoring to fight Germany. But I think that what Churchill does is he launched an influence campaign, right? His speeches are great.

Some of the funniest speeches ever made in the English language, up there with the Gettysburg Address and... He's setting this up. He's setting this up as a global... War against evil. That he hopes will help Roosevelt. If he just goes, this is an old-fashioned British... The Brits have been fighting on the continent for 300 years.

We've been swapping provinces with the French and the Austrians and the Germans. He doesn't want it to be seen as that kind of war. This is not like, oh, we'll take Alsace-Lorraine, we'll give you back Gibraltar, you know, all that kind of stuff. This is a all or nothing fight against something that is evil.

And he's doing that to try and help Roosevelt, to try and say, I'm going to sell this in a different way.

Yeah, we sometimes think, it's so true, man. We sometimes think of these guys as old school, patrician, pre-internet, pre-TV, grand strategists. These two were ferocious PR guys. They knew exactly what was going on. They knew exactly how to move democratic audiences one way or another.
