On February 15, 1933 President- Elect Franklin D Roosevelt was making a speech near Bayfront Park in Miami, Florida. During the speech an Italian named, Giuseppe Zangara, fired five shots at FDR but couldn't get a view and so fired wildly at him. 5 people were injured/dead including Anton Cermak, Chicago Mayor. However what if one of these wild shots hit FDR and led to the Presidency falling to Vice-President John Nance Garner. Without FDR, it was unlikely that the New Deal which arguably helped US recovery would have been enacted. Along with other changed policies, it is likely that the economy of the US would've been destroyed beyond recognition leading to a longer more devastating Depression.
