I was specifically referring to 'internal' opposition to FDR among his supporters.SJConspirator » 20 Jun 2021, 7:05 pm » wrote: ↑ "Few groups"?
There was enormous opposition. The Rockefellers and DuPonts tried to recruit General Smedley Butler to stage a bloody military coup. Thats pretty extreme
Obviously the Rockefellers and DuPonts don't fall under that category as generally industrialists back in 1933 weren't FDR liberals (or if they were they did it for cynical/self serving reasons and not because they supported a broad coalition of labor groups).
