Teddy proving he's the best president

Theodore Roosevelt gives you a GTA mission.

That is true. Whether you believe it or not, there is truth in fiction. Sinclair wanted meat processing and slaughterhouses to change, and that’s just what he got. Enough attention to stir the pot.

Originally Sinclaire intended the jungle to be a book about bad labor paractices, he said he aimed for the heart and hit the stomach.

Who can honestly say they don't like Teddy. He was a man with a personality larger than life with an Iron will and a heart of gold.

Note: It turned out Upton was not making that shit up. In fact, he was spot on, because he realized that if he wore coveralls and carried a lunch pail, he could get in anywhere. His book was based on the things he saw in factories firsthand

[johnkramer]

This is the reason why no one in politics at the time actually wanted Teddy to be President. They made him Vice President to get him the hell out of New York politics.

It sure bit them in the ass.

⁠it’s a mini-Series documentary called ‘Theodore Roosevelt’ from the History Channel on History Vault. They come out with a new one every year, there’s also Lincoln, Washington, and my favorite Grant. I think the next one coming out is JFK

We really need a guy like this right now.

In my home town in Ohio is a restaurant (Spaghetti Warehouse) with a painting of Teddy and a quote. "Speak softly and carry a big stick" one of my favorite sayings ever.

What I like about him is that whether he faces a hurdle in his life, he basically says:

Nah, I'd win

[Ed-zpxo]

I worked in a medical device factory. The FDA announces their visits a month or two in advance and we cleaned up our act accordingly

[Azraeltheangelofdeath]

The best part is that the factory owners found out anyways and tried cleaning up, but even with that, the inspectors were appalled at what they found

Upton Sinclair, author of “the jungle”
“I aimed for the nations heart and hit them in the stomach.“ Upton Sinclair.

[TheSilvermane]

Scary thing is these men's visit still got leaked to the factories and they cleaned up in preparation for their arrival. Despite that it was still so unhygienic that the factory still got shut down.

[BoxheadHakx]

At first, I thought this was a 'L.A. Noire' DLC mission

[MACTEP-ileu]

I'm so damn happy they made a show on this guy it's about damn time

[SteepFuse]

I heard this guy played Theodore real well. its just the only thing he got wrong was Theodore was more out there during his speeches, like he would gradually get louder and have more motion in his body.

[kurtberliner]

The irony is that Sinclair was not making shit up at all
