Taft thought bubble: "October? Really? Damn, it's hot; feels almost like summer time in D.C. Let's get this show moving, I've got a tee time in two hours."
Let’s not forget Madero initiating and then Wilson sent US troops after Villa (invading Mexico - sound familiar for todays timeline ?). Also complicated relationship with US v Germany (Zimmerman telegram). Diaz courting US investment probably all this visit was about
I always thought that the current president-clown looks as if his mother dresses him in his uncles old suits, two sizes too big. But look at Taft! Did he borrow his nephews coat? Could he not find anything smaller to sqeeze into?

Guess it came up tails.
Case closed.
Diaz stayed in power for 36 years, so Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata made their move to topple a dictatorship.
Tradition 🎉🙏
