People in the 1920s began blaming Herbert Hoover for the economic downturn that led to the Great Depression, particularly after the Stock Market crash of 1929. As the President at the time, Hoover's policies and perceived inaction in addressing the economic crisis fueled public frustration. Many felt his belief in limited government intervention failed to alleviate the suffering of millions facing unemployment and poverty. This sentiment solidified his unpopularity and contributed to the Democratic victory in the 1932 presidential election.
