1908 Re-election scandal:
When he announced he would not run again the Democrats mocked calling him William Coward Taft and saying he’s afraid of the Democrats, so Taft ran again with Dawes. The Democrats put out Woodrow Wilson and William Randolph Hearst, when Taft got the news he had won he chuckled and said “A Republican Coward beat a normal Democrat”. During his inauguration he told the public that he’s resigning in favor of Dawes saying “I just wanted a Term”. Then he became Chief Justice of the United States of America.
