Contenido

El complot

En 1933, se denunció una conspiración para derrocar al presidente Franklin D. Roosevelt mediante un golpe militar. Esta presunta conspiración, cuya existencia real es difícilmente demostrable, se conoció como el Business Plot (Complot de los Negocios), porque teóricamente involucraba a la élite industrial y financiera, cuyos intereses se suponían amenazados por la política del New Deal. Se desveló ante la opinión pública cuando el general de los marines retirado Smedley Butler testificó ante el Comité McCormack-Dickstein del Congreso de los Estados Unidos que había sido tanteado por un grupo de altos intereses económicos, liderado por los imperios industriales DuPont y J. P. Morgan, para orquestar un golpe militar contra Roosevelt.[1]

Miembros del complot

  • William Doyle - Former state commander of the American Legion.
  • Robert Clark - Heir to the Singer sewing machine fortune.
  • Gerald MacGuire - Bond salesman for Clark, and a member of the Connecticut American Legion. MacGuire was the key recruiter to General Butler.[2]
