Trump Is the New FDR

The progressive hero created the predicate for the Trump presidency.

Progressives have long pined for another FDR. Here in the first couple of months of 2025, they’ve gotten one.

President Trump’s mad opening dash is like nothing we’ve seen since Franklin Roosevelt’s historic first 100 days.

It’s a cliché to say that we live in an unprecedented era, but it’s not the first time we’ve had a frenetic, action-oriented president who cares more about the results than the rules and, oh yeah, is interested in serving more than two terms in office.
