The correct answer from the options provided is:

Taft supported suffrage for women.

While it is true that Taft was not as popular as Theodore Roosevelt during his presidency, and he did not break twice as many trusts as Roosevelt (in fact, he is noted for being more aggressive in trust-busting than Roosevelt), he did express support for women's suffrage during his term. The other points do not accurately reflect his record or reputation.
