I suspect that this is the climax. We can have a polarized figure ending the 4T along with a polarized electorate for a 1T. There’s already precedent here with Lincoln and the gilded age.

FDR was also a very polarizing figure.  Republicans hated him.  His New Deal policies weren't exactly ushered in with unanimous consent. Even his Vice President opposed them.  And his third and fourth term campaigns for president was so controversial he had to pick a new Vice President each time.  Plus, like Wilson, he ran on a "stay out of the war" platform in 1940 but got us into the war anyway. There are conspiracy theories, even to this day, that he knew about Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor before it happened but let it happen so that he could get more support for the war.

You have it much closer to the truth on this post, in my opinion
