Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Father James Coughlin, is the correct answer.

Charles Coughlin was one of the prominent critics of Roosevelt's New Deal. Father James Coughlin was a Catholic priest and a host of a popular radio show. Initially, he supported the New Deal of Roosevelt but during the course of time, he blamed the communists and Jews for the Great Depression and began spreading the anti-Semitic sentiments through his radio show and paying sympathy to Hitler and Mussolini. Therefore, Option (C) Father James Coughlin, is the right answer.
