Why did the Republican party split during the Tart's administration?

The Republican Party split during Taft's administration primarily due to ideological differences between the conservative wing, led by Taft, and the progressive wing, championed by Theodore Roosevelt. Progressives sought more extensive reforms, including stronger regulation of businesses and social justice initiatives, while conservatives focused on maintaining traditional party values and stability. This divide became more pronounced after Taft's policies, which many progressives viewed as too moderate, leading Roosevelt to challenge him in the 1912 election. The split ultimately resulted in a fragmented party and the rise of the Democratic candidate, Woodrow Wilson.
