Heartland’s Tim Benson is joined by Benn Steil, senior fellow and director of international economics at the Council on Foreign Relations, to discuss his new book, The World That Wasn't: Henry Wallace and the Fate of the American Century. They discuss Wallace’s brilliance as a geneticist, his odd obsession with mysticism, and his naivete toward the true nature of the Soviet Union and Soviet communism. They also chat about his collusion with Stalin during his run for the presidency in 1948 and how frequently he was manipulated by Soviet agents and assets during his entire tenure in government service.
