switches the US to wartime production after the USN’s primary pacific fleet harbor is attacked pretty badly
beats the Nazis
wins 3rd term (back when it was actually legal)
Please explain to me why we can’t have an election while at war.
(I know why, and how they’re trying to manipulate the optics. I just think it’d be great if everyone was just like “lol you’re a massive fucking pussy compared to FDR”, and simply refused to let up on that)
Don’t let them conflate foreign wars with hostile local occupation. The line that is being drawn is that since zalensky can forgo elections while major population centers are literally occupied by a hostile force (Russia) that that means elections here can be halted if we were to occupy our own cities
