What was roosevelt's square deal? a. it was a game show. b. he proposed better hours for working people. c. he wanted people to eat more nutritional meals. d. it promised a fair shake for the average citizen. e. it was a political move.

I'm pretty sure it was E. a political move. I hope this helps :)

I'm not entirely sure what "a fair shake for the average citizen" references here, but it may be it. Roosevelt's goal with the Square Deal revolved around conservation of the environment, control of corporations and consumer protection. The aforementioned are often referred to as the Square Deal's "Three C's".
