My comment was about the degree of executive power exercised, and not about the wisdom of his actions. Trump has yet to match FDR.
That said, many historians believe that FDR's actions made the Great Depression longer and more severe. Given that most other countries recovered more quickly than the USA, they may have a point. But that is a complex debate. Far simpler is how much executive power FDR wielded.
