'Overstepping his authority ' is bullshit-ese for 'he had a backbone and didn't cave'. Nothing that FDR did was without historical precedent, and complaining about 'packing the supreme court ' is just crocodile tears from people who, today, throw support behind politicians who gerrymander districts. Its only under handed politics when your opponent does it, when right wing politicians do it, well, that's totally justified.

If the democrats if today had the same willingness to 'overstep their authority ' (Like the GOP of today does), we wouldn't be in this mess.
