Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft .
President William McKinley was not particularly known for trust-busting during his presidency, and his second term was cut short by his assassination in September 1901. However, it was his successor, Theodore Roosevelt, who actively pursued trust-busting policies. Roosevelt believed in regulating large corporations rather than dismantling them outright, which marked a shift in approach to corporate monopolies. McKinley's administration did not emphasize trust-busting, so it was ultimately Roosevelt who took up that mantle after McKinley's death.
