Listen "FDR's Struggle Against Opposition"
Episode Synopsis
Franklin D. Roosevelt's unprecedented four-term presidency earned him both admiration and fierce criticism, as opponents accused him of fostering a "cult of personality" and overstepping constitutional limits. Right-wing figures, business leaders, and even some clergy portrayed him as a tyrant, while his use of radio and public appearances was sometimes condemned as manipulative propaganda. Despite these attacks, FDR's policies reshaped the nation during the Great Depression and World War II, leaving a legacy that was as controversial as it was transformative.
