Question
how did the events surrounding the bonus army in 1932 affect people’s attitudes?
more americans wanted macarthur to be president.
more americans wanted help from the rfc.
more americans disliked hoover.
more americans joined the bonus army.
The Bonus Army was a group of World War I veterans who marched to Washington, D.C., in 1932 to demand early payment of a bonus. President Hoover ordered the military (led by MacArthur) to disperse them, using force. This incident made many Americans view Hoover as unsympathetic to the suffering of the unemployed and veterans during the Great Depression, leading to more people disliking him. The other options are incorrect: MacArthur's actions were seen negatively, not as a presidential bid boost; the RFC (Reconstruction Finance Corporation) was for business/government loans, not related to the Bonus Army's impact on attitudes toward it; and the Bonus Army was a specific group, and the event didn't lead to more joining it, but rather affected attitudes toward Hoover.
