William Howard Taft

William Howard Taft promoted "Dollar Diplomacy" as the 27th President of the United States, advancing the expansion of overseas influence through economic power. While he supported American imperialism via Philippine governance and Latin American policies, he also faced factional internal conflicts within the Republican Party at home. After stepping down, he became the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, famously known as the only individual to have served in both offices.
