It is no surprise some Americans believe it is just a matter of time before another financial crisis rocks the economy. Recent headlines make clear the financial system is loaded with minefields.
From the column: "Like FDR, Biden inherited a nation in crisis. However, within his first 100 days in office, all Biden has done is pass one gargantuan spending bill: The American Recovery Plan."
PRESIDENT JOE Bidenâs first 100 days in the Oval Office have been eventful, to say the least, but comparing his tenure during this period to past presidents like Franklin D. Roosevelt is an insult to FDR.
However, that has not stopped a parade of pundits from comparing Biden to past presidential giants such as FDR.
Here are just a handful of headlines from the mainstream media drawing comparisons between the two Democratic presidents:
CNN: âThe three striking similarities between FDR and Bidenâ;
The New York Times: âJoe Biden Is Electrifying America Like FDRâ;
TIME: âHow Joe Biden Is Positioning Himself as a Modern FDR.â

President Biden’s chief of staff, Ron Klain, left nothing to the imagination on Feb. 9 when he tweeted a line from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s first inaugural address: “Action, and action now.”
Klain repeated the allusion in another tweet a week later, and even more recently posted side-by-side photos of the Biden and Roosevelt cabinets. All this has positioned the chief of staff as the flag-carrier for an emerging political construct aiming to associate Biden’s policies with the New Deal.
Comparisons between Biden and Roosevelt are proliferating in political commentary.
