Предвыборный лозунг Гардинга 100 лет назад был "Return to Normalcy":
"America’s present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums, but normalcy; not revolution, but restoration; not agitation, but adjustment; not surgery, but serenity; not the dramatic, but the dispassionate; not experiment, but equipoise; not submergence in internationality, but sustainment in triumphant nationality. <...> My best judgment of America’s needs is to steady down, to get squarely on our feet, to make sure of the right path. Let’s get out of the fevered delirium of war, with the hallucination that all the money in the world is to be made in the madness of war and the wildness of its aftermath. Let us stop to consider that tranquillity at home is more precious than peace abroad, and that both our good fortune and our eminence are dependent on the normal forward stride of all the American people." https://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/document/return-to-normalcy/
Республиканские президенты принципиально не признавали СССР, но поневоле способствовали его выживанию - вначале (под руководством будущего президента Гувера) спасением жизней миллионов советских граждан от голода и тифа, а потом молчаливым позволением бизнесменам вроде Фреда Коха осуществлять сталинскую "индустриализацию" https://puppet-djt.livejournal.com/156902.html?thread=450790#t450790
In the view of these Republican statesmen, the Soviet government, in order to regularize its relations with the United States, would not only have to cease its advocacy of revolution in the United States and its ill-concealed support for elements working to that end, but would have to assume the financial obligations incurred by previous Russian regimes to the U.S. government and to American nationals. On this, the relationship rested for 13 years. Individual American businessmen were not prevented from traveling in Russia and trading with the Soviet foreign trade monopoly, at their own risk. Herbert Hoover, emerging with halos of glory from his leadership of the American relief effort in Europe at the end of the war, was not prevented from organizing and conducting in Russia, in 1921-22, as a private undertaking, the magnificent work of the American Relief Administration, which saved several million people from starvation and may well, for all anyone can tell, have saved the Soviet regime itself from utter failure and collapse. But the American government itself was officially blind to a regime whose attitude and behavior it found unacceptable as a basis for formal relations. https://pdfslide.net/documents/the-united-states-and-the-soviet-union-1917-1976.html
В рейтинге американских политологов Вильсон находится на 11ом месте, Гардинг - на шестом с конца.
