Willkie took more isolationist positions towards the end of the race with who?

  • Franklin D. Roosevelt

  • Harry S. Truman

  • Thomas E. Dewey

  • Robert A. Taft

Answer

Republican presidential candidate Wendell Willkie took more isolationist positions towards the end of the race with Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1940 presidential election. This was likely due to the fact that Roosevelt was increasingly advocating for intervention in World War II, while Willkie was more reluctant to commit American troops to the conflict.
