Imagine thinking that comparing Biden to FDR is a good thing.
Now add to that claiming the only reason Biden isn’t as ‘transformative’ as FDR is because of the racist/xenophobic opposition.
And then pretending it’s a smart take.
Ouch.
Oh, and apparently Robert Reich figured out he wasn’t a smart take at all because he deleted it.
Luckily Karol Markowicz grabbed it:

Hate to break it to ol’ Bob but FDR was himself a paranoid, xenophobic racist.
Maybe he should look up that whole Japanese Internment Camp thing.

Does killing 900,000 foreign civilians in bombing raids count as xenophobic? Asking for a friend.
