What actual liberal politician has EVER even TRIED to do this?

FDR, but dozens of giant American industrialists came together to (fail to) do a fascist coup against him, the Business Plot. But even the New Deal and the welfare state/Keynesian philosophy eventually turned into a tool leveraged by the Truman and Eisenhower administrations to put America in the position of global hegemon; the American working class could only benefit from liberalism at the expense of the global south.

and even then, the new deal only happened because the ruling class felt genuinely threatened. liberals didnt suddenly decide to implement it because they were liberals.
