    FDR:

    brings the US out of the Great Depression

    establishes social security

    switches the US to wartime production after the USN’s primary pacific fleet harbor is attacked pretty badly

    beats the Nazis

    wins 3rd term (back when it was actually legal)

    Please explain to me why we can’t have an election while at war.

    (I know why, and how they’re trying to manipulate the optics. I just think it’d be great if everyone was just like “lol you’re a massive fucking pussy compared to FDR”, and simply refused to let up on that)
