Shades Re: "Hitler" He was pretty well boxed up. He got vast amount of raw materials from the USSR, at least till June 1941 and for this funding was not required. And he had all the resources of occupied Europe and unlike WWI food was not a problem in Germany even near the end. But the Royal Navy controlled the seas. Even Rommel had to be supplied by air. Nazi Germany just didn't have much of a surface fleet and the Norway invasion cost them dearly. Lacking a surface fleet there was no way to break the blockade. Even the Bismark was a weak ship, sunk the Hood but the Hood was just a battle cruiser and in the same engagement the Prince of Wales, which was out on sea trials and not even staffed yet and with her guns manned by technicians from Vickers managed to get in a fatal lick. Down by the bow the Bismark was tracked down and sunk. With all of Europe under blockade how could Prescot Bush (whose son, the future president was a pilot in the Pacific) have helped Hitler even if he had wanted to. Leftie internet mythology. Slagle
