FDR was screamed at in his own time for imposing "socialism" in the form of the New Deal - including the Social Security system, which MAGA is bent on eradicating.

They don't see that. Rather they see FDR as this populist and aggressive manly man who didn't take no for an answer, particularly in respect towards how he proceeded to take a third term in office.

Ahh yes, the third term. Good catch!

Yeah, I thought MAGA hated FDR.

Though I'm sure zero thought was given to this an it was generated by a prompt that only mentioned Trump should be at the top, and Biden, Obama, and Carter should be at the bottom.

Interesting they didn't tell the AI to also put Clinton at the bottom. Guess Trump still has a soft spot for Clinton out of nostalgia for when they hung out together at Epstein's house.
