Probably pretty similar to FDR, probably more leftwing in what he tries to do

i know FDR had John N. Garner as his vastly more conservative running mate to keep the coalition together and that it's pretty historically accurate but it's nevertheless incredibly funny to imagine the guy who would have inarguably been the most Left-Wing President in American history up until that point getting paired on a ticket with fucking Hanford McNider.

How likely do you think is it that MacNider and a number of Congressional Republicans try to freeze La Guardia out of policymaking
