A) Roosevelt split from the Republicans and formed the Progressive Party.

When Roosevelt returned to the Republican fold in 1916, the Progressive Party vanished for a time. In 1924, liberals were so frustrated with conservative control of both major political parties that they formed the League of Progressive Political Action, better known as the Progressive Party.
