      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)
