William Howard Taft was not associated with the New Nationalism; that concept was primarily championed by his predecessor, Theodore Roosevelt. New Nationalism emphasized progressive reforms, social justice, and greater government intervention in the economy. Taft, on the other hand, advocated for a more conservative approach, focusing on trust-busting and upholding the law rather than expansive reforms. His presidency is often viewed as a continuation of some progressive policies, but he diverged from Roosevelt's more aggressive reform agenda.
