Chapter 67: Lin Han's Ambition (I)
The Washington tragedy ended in bloodshed.
In total, 31 people were killed and nearly 1,000 were injured. The casualties were several times higher than those in the original history, and in addition to the more than 10 people who were shot and killed, the rest of the injured people were mainly panic and trampling caused by the military's dispersal process.
For a time, the US Government became infamous, and public opinion throughout the United States was in an uproar.
Historically, President Hoover gained a bad reputation because of this mishandling of this incident, and lost miserably in the following election. His situation on this plane will only get worse because of the Traverser's sideways. Hoover's resignation and the Democratic candidate's entry into the White House were a foregone conclusion.
After Roosevelt's death, the Democratic Party urgently put forward a new candidate, John Nance Garner, a southerner nicknamed "cactus Jack" (cactus Jack), who was the 44th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1931 to 1933 and the 32nd Vice President of the United States from 1933 to 1941.
Although he came from the Democratic Party, many of his political views are similar to those of the Republican Party, and best of all, he is a hard-liner and a "red neck" (red neck, that is, a white supremacist racist in the United States), in addition to being a Monroeist.
Hannah and Linhan, who have read history, are very satisfied with this future candidate for the presidency of the United States. Although he still cannot make major changes to the established national policy in the history of the United States after taking office, in the long run, there will be gratifying changes.
Will killing Roosevelt stop the Americans from carrying out the "Roosevelt" New Deal and temporarily alleviate the economic crisis in China?
The answer is no.
Roosevelt's rise to power and the emergence of Roosevelt's New Deal were both inevitable under the objective conditions of the United States at that time. Without Roosevelt, there would have been the appearance of Li Sifu and Wang Sifu to take his place and role.
But it was not useless to take out Roosevelt in advance.
Whether it is the Lend-Lease Act or the crackdown on the lawless plutocrats after Ross came to power, this is something that can only be done by a bold and far-sighted leader. You don't see the face of Truman, who succeeded him after Roosevelt's violent death.
History is inevitable, and it is also contingent. If the United States wants to change its original route, it must start from a small place and change it little by little, and we must not be in a hurry, nor should we delusionally hope that we can solve the US problem once and for all, and let the United States change many "inevitable" and "established" national policies.
After John Nance Garner became president of the United States, the New Deal in his name will still appear, and the United States will still be able to recover from the economic crisis.
Whether it is the United States in the twentieth century or the United States in the twenty-first century, it is a country controlled by a chaebol consortium, and some radicals even jokingly call it a chaebol disguised as a state. But this statement is not entirely true.
Although the big chaebol consortium with Rockefeller, Morgan, and DuPont firmly controls the US economy, it is far from 100 percent, and at most it is about half. As for the politics of the United States, their influence is huge, but it is only huge, and they are still far from "completely controlling".
In the U.S. government, there are still a large number of leftist forces that can be called "progressive" and have been waging a long-term struggle against the chaebol forces. Beginning with President Lincoln, the upper elite of the US government has always maintained great vigilance against the infiltration of corporate plutocratic capital. The struggle between these people and the conglomerates and plutocracy has almost run through the short history of the United States. Of course, they also paid a heavy price, such as the 9th president of the United States, William Henry Harrison, who was as strong as an ox and died of pneumonia after a rain; President Lincoln's mysterious assassination, President Roosevelt Sr., who dismembered the Rockefeller consortium, was ousted from office after failing to be re-elected, and so on.
The relationship between the U.S. government and the U.S. consortium is extremely complicated, with all kinds of contradictions entangled, united and fighting, symbiotic and parasitic, controlling and counter-accusating, compromising and containing each other. The grievances between them are like rejoicing in enemies, and they can't be explained for a few days and nights.
Franklin who was killed by Lin Han and Hannah teamed up. Roosevelt was also one of the presidents who fought against the many plutocratic conglomerates that parasitized the United States. During the Roosevelt administration, he united with Hoover to severely suppress the plutocratic conglomerates in the United States, forcing these moths who "gnawed the big tree" and almost nibbled the tree down to shut up and spit out something.
In the process of suppressing the conglomerate chaebol, the figure of Hoover also played an irreplaceable role. Without Hoover's help, I am afraid that Roosevelt would have been shot in the head by a mentally ill person during a speech after he had harmed the interests of the consortium like his predecessor Lincoln during his administration. It was the combination of Roosevelt and Hoover that suppressed the lawless Wall Street consortium in the United States before World War II, and it was not until the outbreak of World War II that they were able to regroup and grow through large-scale arms orders.
In Lin Han's view, the struggle against the conglomerates and plutocracy was Roosevelt's greatest contribution to the United States, not that he led the United States to win World War II and ascend to the throne of the world's boss -- with the national strength and strategic environment of the United States at that time, it was inevitable that the president at that time would ascend to the throne as long as he was not surprisingly stupid. Roosevelt's real contribution was that at this critical point, he restrained the long-term damage to the "health" of the big tree of the United States by the domestic consortium and plutocracy, and prolonged the time of US hegemony.
But not every presidential candidate, like Roosevelt, would do such a thankless task as fighting the corporate plutocracy. John Nance Garner is not that kind of person. After he came to power, he would still engage in the New Deal, but he was unlikely to fight against these greedy Wall Street conglomerates like Roosevelt did.
These Wall Street plutocratic elites, although they know the truth that gnawing trees can't nibble down trees, but what kind of Cheng dรน do you have to gnaw down trees to mean that you can't nibble down?
If no one tries to suppress it, the greedy nature of human beings, they will only stop gnawing until the last bite of what they think is "if you bite the tree again, you will fall".
Without Roosevelt and Hoover's pruning and pesticide eradication, at this critical point in history, the big tree of the United States, in the last years before the explosion of World War II, grew crooked in the other direction, leaving a deep hidden danger.
In the layout of the United States, Lin Han's biggest ambition and delusion is to secretly exert his force to make the United States more conglomerate, closer to the so-called "consortium disguised as a state", and then these Wall Street moths who want to "gnaw until the last bite of the tree falls" will smash the tree and gnaw it down.
For now, this idea seems like a fantasy, it seems to be out of reach, but if you don't try it, how do you know it won't work? During the Cold War, who would have thought that the former red empire of the Soviet Union would end its life in a suicidal way.
History, reality, and sometimes more bizarre and yy than fiction.;
