You can thank Wilson for direct election of senators, income taxes, and a plethora of other progressive causes. Wilson did more to harm the nation than practically any other president.

You can indirectly thank Teddy for challenging Taft because Taft wasn't "progressive" enough, thereby helping to elect Wilson.

Teddy would have been a hell of a lot better than Wilson. Seems like anyone who goes after the GOP gets taken down and replaced by a real progressive and a stooge for inner circle/ deep state. Yes, they had that problem back then too. The GOP track record. They hated Teddy, Reagan, Trump and worked to undermine all of them.
