При выдвижении на пост президента от Республиканской партии [ Republican Party] Рузвельт назвал его в качестве преемника, однако Тафт позднее примкнул к консервативному крылу партии; постепенно разошелся с ним во взглядах на основные проблемы.

В 1921-30 - 10-й председатель Верховного суда США [ Chief Justice of the United States].
