  • And that he didn’t tell this to graduating diplomats, whom would see through this peaceful transition

    In this sentence, “who/whom” is acting as the subject of the clause “who/whom would see through this peaceful transition” and thus should be in the nominative case “who.”

    Easiest way to know when to use “whom” is to replace the word with “he/him” and follow the “m.” If “he” makes more sense, use “who.” If “him” makes more sense, use “whom.”

    And if you’re not sure, just use “who.” It’ll stand out a lot less if it’s wrong, since “whom” is gradually falling out of use.
