US elects a socialist > the man gets re-elected three times
Lesson learned: We must never get close to implementing social policies!
FDR wasn't a socialist. He wasn't even a social democrat by any standard but US-brain rot.
Government providing jobs to the unemployed, minimum wage, labor laws, social security... Blocked by the Republicans and a bunch of red Democrats when he wanted to do more...
I'm saying he's a socialist as he was in favour of government intervention to help the population, he wasn't a communist and might have been a social-liberal, it's still on the socialist spectrum.
Socialism is when the government does stuff after all
When it does stuff like create social programs? Yeah.
That explains the most socialist institution to ever exist, the American military industrial complex. It's a job program!
