Chapter 989 Entering the White House

Theodore.

Roosevelt and Woodrow.

Although Wilson's meeting was very short and less than an hour before, it had a profound impact on the United States and the world. In the face of internal and external troubles, the Republican and the Democratic Party have joined hands to jointly

To deal with this crisis, the first thing that is unlucky is not the enemy of the United States, China, but the President Taft who is still reliant on the White House to refuse to leave.

According to Theodore.

Roosevelt and Woodrow.

Wilson reached an agreement, the two parties worked together to drive Taft out of the White House. Then, Theodore.

Roosevelt entered the White House and formed a new government. However, the new government, including the Vice President, Secretary of State, Secretary of State, Attorney General, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Postal and Secretary of Commerce and Labor, are all Democratic, and the Republican Party only has the president.

, Minister of War, Minister of Navy and Minister of the Interior, basically, Theodore later.

Roosevelt was responsible for the war with China, and all internal affairs were handed over to the Democratic Party. It can be said that in order to win over the Democratic Party and Woodrow.

Wilson, this time the Republican Party and Theodore.

Roosevelt paid a great price. There is no way to do this. Who said that this crisis was caused by their Republican president? In order to quickly resolve the crisis, the Republican Party could only give up a large part of its interests.

Theodore.

Roosevelt and Woodrow.

After Wilson reached an agreement, he had to convince the bigwigs in his respective parties. Any political party is an interest group, not a solid piece of paper. There are people within the Republican and Democratic Party who oppose bipartisan cooperation. However, this is only a small matter.

It's just some people, most of them agree with the temporary cooperation between the two parties. Although these politicians have their own interests, they are also very clear that the United States is facing a serious crisis now, and if this crisis cannot be overcome,

Nothing to say will be redundant.

In Theodore.

Roosevelt and Woodrow.

With Wilson's efforts, the two parties unified their thoughts in a short time. After that, the Senate members began to act and prepared to reopen the parliament, initiated the impeachment of President Taft, and drove Taft out.

White House.

And in between, Theodore.

Roosevelt also secretly met with General Pershing. After leaving Chil Pansingo, he accelerated his return to the United States and returned to Washington until the evening of April 1. Late that night, he arrived in Washington with him.

Theodore is here to take charge of the overall situation.

Roosevelt met. After meeting, Theodore.

Roosevelt first thanked General Pershing for his help. If General Pershing had not told Theodore about the US military's disastrous defeat in Chilpansingo immediately.

With Roosevelt's words, he would not have the chance to completely bring President Taft down.

"General Pershing, I am very dissatisfied with the unfair treatment you have received. Also, thank you for the information. Don't worry, once I return to the White House, I will nominate you as the Chief of Staff of the Army!

”Theodore.

Roosevelt said. This time General Pershing has helped him a lot, so of course he should give him a good reward. However, the only thing that a soldier can hold is the position of Chief of Staff, unless Pershing

He would be willing to take off his military uniform, otherwise he would not be able to hold a higher position. In addition, Theodore.

Roosevelt also hopes to win over General Pershing. Although he has not been promoted to General, he has a certain influence in the US Army. Theodore.

Roosevelt needed the help of General Pershing to quickly control the US Army.

"Mr. Roosevelt. This is what I should do. The reason I do this is for the United States!" General Pershing said righteously. However, he then continued: "As for the position of Chief of Staff of the Army, I think I and

Not suitable, I hope to continue commanding the troops on the front line, fighting the Chinese until they defeated their conspiracy and drove them away from America!”

General Pershing was unwilling to serve as Chief of Staff of the Army. This was what made Theodore.

Roosevelt was a little surprised. However, after General Pershing explained the reason, he immediately understood. General Pershing, like him, did not do it for promotion and wealth. Everything he did was to be able to survive this crisis.

.In addition, General Pershing was also the only general in the US Army with rich experience in fighting against the Chinese army. In the future, the wars with China will largely rely on General Pershing.

"If that's the case, I won't force you. After I become president, I will immediately restore your position and you will continue to command the US military's battle on the Mexican battlefield. At that time, I will fully support you until the Chinese are defeated.

Until!" Theodore.

Roosevelt said.

"Thank you, Your Excellency President!" General Pershing said happily. He is a natural soldier. He will be very bored when he lets him sit in the office. The stage he plays should be on the battlefield. Although so far, he has once again

He was defeated by China once, but he did not give hope.!

"General Pershing, then who do you think is the best general of the Army is the Chief of Staff?" Theodore.

Roosevelt asked.

"His Excellency President, I think the current Chief of Staff General Leonard Wood is very suitable. Previously, because of Taft's constraints, General Wood could not be able to exert his talents. And if General Wood continues to remain in office, it would be possible to make the

The army is more stable!" General Pershing said. Leonard.

The relationship between General Wood and General Pershing is quite good. Instead of changing to someone who is unfamiliar to serve as Chief of Staff of the Army, it is better to let Leonard go.

Admiral Wood continued to stay in office, which was also a good thing for Admiral Pershing.

Theodore.

Roosevelt hesitated for a moment, but nodded. The reason given by Admiral Pershing is very reasonable. It is now in wartime, so it is best for the Army to not have any turmoil, otherwise it will cause great damage to the United States.

At 9 a.m. on April 2, despite President Taft's opposition, the U.S. Senate Interim Speaker William.

Frye still organized 96 senators to hold a meeting to impeach incumbent President Taft. Because it is wartime, all unnecessary procedures have been simplified when 18 Republican members jointly submitted the Tatto.

After President Ftu's distrust bill, the senators immediately discussed it. At this time, President Taft, who was the party involved, was not present.

After half an hour of discussion, a vote was held. Among the 96 senators, 92 voted in favor, and only four abstained. Therefore, according to the US Constitution, the impeachment came into effect, and President Taft was kicked out of power in legal terms.

.The senators then proceeded to the next issue, electing the vice president. According to the agreement between the Republican and the Democratic Party, Woodrow.

Wilson was elected as vice president without any doubt. As for the right to elect a president, it belongs to the House of Representatives.

In the afternoon of the same day, representatives of the House of Representatives also held an emergency meeting. After a fierce debate, more than 400 members of the House of Representatives finally passed the election of Theodore.

Roosevelt's proposal for the president of the United States. The current President William.

Howard.

Taft was still not present.

However, he had already announced in the morning that during the war, the US Congress was in a recession and any proposals had no legal effect. Obviously, even at this moment, Taft was unwilling to give up his full strength.

However, the people's hearts are no longer on his side.

Theodore was elected in the House of Representatives.

After Roosevelt became the president of the United States, a large number of people gathered at the White House, with tens of thousands of people. They were all supporters of the Republican and Democratic Party mobilization. They shouted 'Taft's slogan, getting out of the White House, and chanted Taft's slogan.

Pressure. However, President Taft became an ostrich.

In fact, by this time, Taft's position was unstable. With the Republicans abandoning him, the Senate had impeached him, and the House had elected a new president, he had no chance of turning the tables.

.The only thing he can rely on is probably the army. However, the American army is not loyal to a certain person or a certain political party, but to the United States. In this case, Taft has to rely on the army to protect it.

It is impossible to be your own position.

US Army Chief of Staff Leonard.

Admiral Wood was also subjected to Theodore.

President Roosevelt's summons, when Theodore.

President Roosevelt explicitly told him that he would continue to serve as Chief of Staff of the Army when Leonard.

Admiral Wood was so grateful that he abandoned Taft without hesitation.

On the evening of April 2, protesters outside the White House tried to rush to the White House. The White House escort officer ordered fire at the crowd under the order of President Taft. However, the soldiers hesitated. When Theodore.

President Roosevelt and Woodrow.

When Vice President Wilson appeared in front of the White House together, the soldiers guarding the White House chose to give in.

President Taft witnessed it in his office on the second floor of the White House. He knew that it was too late and he became a complete loser. He knew very well that in the case of the army betrayed him, Theo

many.

President Roosevelt once again entered the White House, and there was no doubt about it. Moreover, because of everything he did, he might be tried by the Supreme Court, which scared President Taft.

So he sent someone to Theodore.

President Roosevelt made a message that he was willing to resign and leave the White House, but Theodore.

President Roosevelt must pardon him. Theodore.

President Roosevelt considered it and agreed to Taft's request.
