Correct answer: Wiliam H. Taft
Tanya
He was an intelligent man. The only citizen to hold jobs in two different branches of US government.

He Was My Grandmother's Uncle. Thus, My Great, Great Uncle. My Grandmother Was Esther Taft Of Ohio. President Taft Was Happier When He Was On The Supreme Court, Than President

Had no idea he sat on the Supreme Court!

Saints, I would think almost anyone would be happier doing anything other than hold the office of U. S. President. They do seem to age so quickly while in office...the stress must be horrible.

Tanya, you mean the only president to hold jobs in two branches of the US Government? Many citizens have held jobs in multiple US Government branches.

Tanya,
The only citizen? Seems unlikely. How do you know that?

Thunderduck, Taft took the first indoor shower built for him in Nashville, Tennessee. It had heads on both sides to accommodate Taft's girth.

He did have a special bathtub installed to accommodate his size...

FaithfulReader, President Trump could be Fatter than Taft, if he wanted, WHY? Taft did not have McDonalds...
SQinfoNUTS
one way to remember this little fact is that the last three letters of Taft's name can be rearranged to spell the word FAT.
