two taftisms, pick your favorite:

taft would go walk in the rose garden and hide from his staff. when they sent someone to find him, he’d jump out from hiding and try to scare the bejeezus out of them. then he’d laugh till he was crying red in the face

and then:

taft would invite foreign dignitaries to breakfast, where he had the kitchen specially prepare cold gruel to be served. taft would explain that it was one of his favorites. when the gruel came he would watch the table and let his guests debase themselves to praise the president’s favorite cold gruel, while not touching his own meal. then, once everybody had finished, he would put his full, untouched bowl of gruel on the floor for his patiently waiting dog. breakfast with william howard taft, there you go

both of these are true because i learned them in AP US History, as you know an AP US History teacher cannot tell a lie (the george washington curse)

Was Taft actually bigger than Trump? He was only 6ft, 243 lbs. Trump claims to weigh 215 which is preposterous. Trump is probably closer to 315 than 215. He also claims to be 6’3", but is a little shorter than 6’1" Tiger Woods in a photo I saw.

Crazy that Taft is renowned as “The fat president” and was only 243 lbs.

You get stuck in a bathtub one time and suddenly you’re the fat president forever.

There’s no way taft was 6’ and 243 lbs. He was either shorter or heavier, or both. Or was he filled with helium?

Edit, per Google AI because I’m too lazy to look at the actual search results- He was 5 feet 11 inches (1.80 m) tall and his weight was between 325 pounds (147 kg) and 280 pounds (130 kg)

The time has come, the fight is on
We’ve picked the man to run
For President Ohio sent
Her noble worthy son

no thank you, heard tell that a city there has managed to set a river on fire multiple times, plus the East Palestine incident, no politician from the province deserves higher office

The Cuyahoga River first caught fire in 1868…

Jesus, what were they doing there at the time. I thought the state was still just filled with corn farming Union veterans. Even the handsome generals don’t get a pass here.

Ohio is too good for the rest of this dog shit country. Setting your river on fire is a sign of progress. Ohio is a microcosm of the country and should be a country into itself. We also have the best flag. And we won the war against Michigan even if they have better beer

Hair and fingernails appear to keep growing after death, so probably yes.
