Robert Rice Reynolds
(June 18, 1884 – February 13, 1963) was an American politician who served as a
Democratic
US senator
from
North Carolina
from 1932 to 1945. Almost from the outset of his Senate career, "Our Bob," as he was known among his local supporters,
[1]
acquired distinction as a passionate
isolationist
and increasingly as an apologist for Nazi aggression in Europe. Even after America's entry into World War II, according to a contemporary study of subversive elements in America, he "publicly endorsed the propaganda efforts of
Gerald L. K. Smith
," whose scurrilous publication
The Cross and the Flag
"violently assailed the United States war effort and America's allies."
[2]
One of the nation's most influential
fascists
, Smith likewise collaborated with Reynolds on
The Defender
, an
antisemitic
newspaper that was partly owned by Reynolds.
[3]
Reynolds occasionally turned over his Senate office facilities to subversive propagandists and allowed them to use his
franking
to mail their literature postage-free.
[4]
He was also a supporter of the
New Deal
.
