    Sadly, not really. Most Democrats and all Republicans would have pushed back on his progressive policies. I don’t know which policies may have squeaked through, but it wouldn’t be enough.

      Nah he would have used the bully pulpit to greatly raise pressure from voters in the same way FDR did.

      There’s a good reason the rich were utterly terrified of an FDR 2.0… and it’s not because he would have been ineffective.
