While the New Deal programs were generally popular with the majority of Americans, most of the Republicans in congress opposed them. Some of their opposition was political-- President Roosevelt was a Democrat, and traditionally, politicians oppose many of the policies of the opposing party. Many of the Republicans who opposed the New Deal believed it was too expensive to implement, and that it would result in an expansion of government.
