Well we don't know, because Fred Rogers is currently spinning in his grave, and if he were alive, it is virtually certain he would have said nothing. He stayed away from partisanship lest presumed bias interfere with his sacred mission — ministering to children. Because he was publicly apolitical, most did not know he was a lifelong Republican. Certainly Fox News (in a segment shown in the documentary) did not when Brian Kilmeade denounced Rogers as "evil" for teaching children that they are special.
