Interview with Gore Vidal for "The Great Depression"

Interesting handsome likeness of Gore Vidal.

His track record is one of subtle support for communism. I could hardly get through “Burr.” So full of made up stuff. Spent almost a whole page talking about Washington’s big rear end. Consistent with his fetishes.

Wow, his FDR impression is on point.

I agree. He his my favorite AMERICAN author. I loved E.A. Poe too , but with Vidal , his books would just suck you in to
them .

Oh, the days when one could sit and listen to great men and women talk about the realities of our "republic."

See United States of Amnesia.

He was a script writer for Ben-Hur....The irony!

Hitchens idol if I'm not mistaken.

This wonderful man

Love when he talks about his grandfather and childhood

Interesting take on Roosevelt's flaws. Never ever discussed on mainstream television or in documentaries. FDR occupies the same hallowed space as Clement Attlee the post war UK socialist prime minister. For documentary filmmakers these two are always beyond reproach which makes it hard to.judge them objectively so biased are the media.

Fire his ignorant black asd

Robert Moses was a great racist, as racists go. Check out Robert Caro's biography. It's a masterpiece

Is it true that Mr. Vidal's brother played the part of Mr. French in the TV series Family Affair?

the legacy of fdr is gone. reaganism undid it.

When you hear interviews like this you have to wonder is the 🇺🇸 the self proclaimed ' best country in the world '....?

As a life long conservative Republican and great fan of William F. Buckley , I wish Bore Vidal were alive and allow me to give him what Mr. Buckley promised him .

He completely switched from his Grandfather's views and look where the country is now because of it

It's October 2022, and we might be heading for a period of slow growth or even worse. Inflation is up along with the interest rates. All the currencies except the dollar are weak, stressing debt servicing and increasing deglobalisation alongside a war in Europe. The world bank has downgraded world growth pojections from 3.2 to 1.9%.Things not lookin good.

This man would have made a fine president.

I MUST ADMIT I TOOK ON VARIOUS OTHER PERSONAS TO GET MY OUT MY INFORMATION BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT I WAS THE ONLY LIVING GOD JESUS OR JIMMIMY CRICKET WHICH EVER YOU LIKE. MY BODY IS BROKEN DOWN AND I AM ALONE FACING TERRIBLE AGRESSION AGAINST ME STILL AT 75 PLUS YEARS BY THE PIGS
.

THE DEPRESSION WAS CREATED. BY THE OWNERS OF US ALL. THERE ARE LESS THAN 1000 RICH AND POWERFUL WHITE MEN.. THEY CREATE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS ON THE GLOBE INCLUDING ALL THE WARS AND EVEN CREATE ALL THE PROPAGANDA WHICH YOU SEE ON TV. THEY CAN CREATE WEATHER CAUSING HURRICANES IN THE PHILIPPINES OR OTHER WEATHER EFFECTS WHICH CAN CAUSE GREAT MISERY TO PEOPLE AND COUNTRIES. THE CONGRESS AND POLITICIANS ARE BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY THESE SAME ELITES. IT'S A CLUB A VERY CLOSED CLUB WHICH YOU AND I ARE NOT IN. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED AS TO THE DEPRESSION AS WELL. ALL PEOPLE NEEDED TO DO WAS TO MAKE AND SELL YOUR WARES ON THE STREET IN ORDER TO EAT AND TAKE CARE OF ONE'S FAMILY. WHENEVER SOMEONE SAYS TO YOU GET OUT IN THE STREETS AND BREAD LINES AND STARVE TO DEATH. DON'T BELIEVE IT. IF YOU DO YOU WILL ESSENTIALLY LOSE YOUR FREEDOM.
THIS WAS A GREAT DAY FOR YOUR OWNERS AS THEY MADE A HUGE SUM OF MONEY FROM SUCH TERROR INFLICTED UPON THE UNITED STATES AND THE REST OF THE GLOBE
THIS SITUATION WILL NEVER CHANGE AND IT WILL NEVER GET ANY BETTER BECAUSE THEY'VE GOT YOU BY THE BALLS, AND IT WON'T EVER CHANGE..SO DON'T EXPECT IT TO.

WELL DONE. GOR VIDAL. INDEED, I COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER.

The only thing necessary in an industrial nation such as America the economy is all we have despite the fact that recessions strike and both parties are simply the same as I call them " THE ALL TO OBVIOUS ESTABLISHMENT " THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE IN EITHER AND WHEN ONE RETURNS HOME FOR CHRISTMAS OR THANKSGIVING, OLD UNCLE JOE RUINS THE HOLIDAY BY TALKING POLITICS THE WHOLE TIME. IT WAS ENTIRELY THE BEST WORK DONE BY YOUR OWNERS OR CONTROLERS TO KEEP THE MASSES CONTROLED AND THINKING YOU OR I HAD ANY RIGHTS . THERE ARE LESS THAN 1 THOUSAND OLD WHITE MEN WHO CONTROL THE ENTIRE WORLD AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE SO. BASICALLY BECAUSE OUR EDUCATION SYSTEM STINKS AS THE TEXTS DO NOT STATE THE TRUTH ABOUT AMERICA AND OUR COLONIALAZATION OF ALL OTHER COUNTRIES AND ISLANDS . ONE DOESN'T REALLY BELIEVE HAWAII WANTED TO BECOME A STATE. DO YOU?.

IF THE PEOPLE WERE TO BECOME PART OF NEVER ALLOWING YOUR CONTROLLERS OR YOUR OWNERS ,WHEN TOLD TO GET IN THE BREAD LINES AND DIE DUE TO THE FACTORIES BEING LOCKED ALL PEOPLE NEEDED TO DO IS UNLOCK THE FACTORY DOORS, MAKE THEIR PRODUCTS AND SELL THEM ON THE STREET. NEVER ALLOW ANOTHER TO TAKE AWAY YOUR FREEDOM
.ONCE THEY DO SO. YOU WILL MOST LIKELY NEVER SURVIVE

since it was gore who brought up the question as to where joe mccarthy was gay i immediately thought "gore is gay". from what I read, he certainly was. But hey, it is 2022 and everyone wants to be gay, know a gay, love a gay or be an african american or know one and well, you get where i am coming from. this country will not be around in 25 years.

Gore accurately predicted Donald Trump. “When the people finally wake up and realize what’s been done to them [by the uniparty] they’re going to smash it.”

Around 2000,I remember visiting Washington, asking this rather ordinary looking woman for directions.She said 'i don't know but my hotel will!'.She then took us into the Willard intercontinental with oak panelling,someone playing a grand piano and a receptionist who served us instantly.

Gore Vidal calls a series of presidents "very dim", all the way to FDR. Well, as big of a crook as Warren G Harding was, didn't he end the Depression of 1921 by being "bright enough" to do nothing and let the economy heal itself? Gore Vidal: a very complicated man. Look up his personal life.

He did terrible things to Jack Kerouac at the Hotel Chelsea!

Long live democratic socialism, freedom, sir TP Gore s and Gore vidal s legacy

Long live democratic socialism and freedom

Thank you for this fascinating take on history by one who experienced it. We miss you, Gore! R.I.P..

FDR's Jew Cabinet took us by seizing gold. They believed we'd be communist by 1939

The best pesident that never was.

Long live communism and eugenics

FDR did what was necessary

I love vidal, I dnt fully love his take on several people and events. Particularly Roosevelt and pearl harbor.

He and Eustace Mullins saw eyes to eyes in so many topics while disagreeing on many others

A revolution of rich against poor, the rich will kill "everyone" before they give up power ...

"Huey Long would come over..." said like it's an everyday thing. What a man!

We’re going to have Cromwell.

74 people diliked this video, probably because they couldn't find the family dictionary and pressed it out of annoyance 😏... I always wonder who got his house, perched on that rockface overlooking the Mediterranean...jammy git ! 🍹🏖️

He talks in prose.

Wow! There's an idea, Tear Down the Pentagon - first, at least, metaphorically. Gosh, I still miss Gore Vidal.

Or if we are cursed, Donald Trump!

ooompa looompa dooompa dee dooo
