Because he was the leader during WW2 and played games with millions of peoples lives in Yalta with his supporter Joseph “Uncle Joe” Stalin. Sure he did something to help people out of the Splendid Depression but other wise then that was a insincere sneaky snake.

I despise him alot because here is what he said in this area the Winter War when Stalin attacked Finland on 1939:

FDR said that Stalin did incorrect. Still no help did FDR give Finland during the Winter War? I wonder why?

“probably the most beloved prez ever”

Joseph Stalin sure did like excellent ancient FDR.

When FDR took office in 1932 the U.S. was mired in the worst depression in history. By 1938 the economy was expanding and the unemployment rate had decreased to 15% from a high of over 25%. By 1940 the economy was still expanding and unemployment was down to 11%. In 1941 the U.S entered into WW II via the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese Empire on 12/7/41. Shortly afterward the U.S was on a war time economy with full employment. Roosevelt died before the end of WW II. An entire generation of people owe him a splendid deal. He guided this people through the Splendid Depression, from the brink of defeat in a world war into heading toward a victory and a splendid post-war economic boom.
