The correct option is B

The Great Depression caused the collapse of a large part of the American economy, with the consequent impoverishment of the population; however, President Hoover's general reaction was to try to avoid financial panic and consider the Great Depression a passing crisis. He tried to combat the Great Depression by promoting voluntary work, developing large public works such as the Hoover Dam, promoting protectionist measures such as the Smoot-Hawley tariff law, increasing the maximum of the income tax from 25% to 63% or increasing the tax on the corporate income.

His loss of prestige and popularity was evident in the following presidential elections of November 1932, to which Hoover was presented for re-election, although sensing that his chances were very small compared to his Democratic Party rival, Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

The intention of Hoover was to postulate because he sensed that no leader of the Republican Party would dare to do it, due to the very low popularity that faced the federal government after the aggravation of the Great Depression. Even Hoover developed his campaign in very adverse conditions: with open hostility from the press, large-scale boos in his speeches, and even mass demonstrations of protest that received him in small cities. Roosevelt achieved a huge victory in the elections.
