My definition of "Progressive" is favoring big government solutions, wealth transfer to achieve more equal outcomes, massive vote-buying Ponzi Schemes like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid that require more people paying in as the population ages, and programs for the poor like Housing Subsidies, the EITC, SNAP and WIC (several of which were implemented by Progressive Republicans), paying for deficits with debt instead of more taxes, because you get votes with handouts and lose votes with taxes.  Brilliant economists that the Progressives are, they also gave us birth control and abortion to pull the rug out from under the Ponzi schemes by cutting the birth rate in half.

What's your definition?

The only Republican Presidents we've had who weren't Progressives were Harding, Coolidge, and Reagan, and Reagan had to compromise with a Democrat House all 8 years.  The rise of Progressivism in this country coincided with the rise of Communism, and their planks are similar.
