Let's assume the following events didn't happen to Theodore Roosevelt: wasn't shot in 1912, didn't undertake the Amazon journey, and his son Quentin survives WWI. This being so, and if he lives into the 1930's (which would put him into his early-mid 70's), how outspoken (for or against) would he have been on FDR's policies? While a Republican he definitely had no qualms of extending the federal government's powers during his term to protect the interests of the public. But would the policies of the New Deal had been too much for him? Could he have become a rejuvenated standard for Republicans to rally around.
