Father Charles Coughlin opposed the New Deal primarily because he believed it did not go far enough in addressing economic inequality and reforming the banking system. He advocated for a more radical approach, including the nationalization of banks and the redistribution of wealth. Coughlin also criticized President Franklin D. Roosevelt for not aligning closely enough with his populist and anti-Semitic views. Ultimately, his discontent stemmed from a desire for more extensive government intervention and social justice measures.
