Yes. August 6, 1945. An estimated 70,000-80,000 people were killed instantly and another 35,000 injured in Hiroshima. Another 60,000-100,000 were dead by the end of the year from the effects of nuclear fallout. Another 80,000 people were killed at Nagasaki.
However, from 1944-1945, 333,000 were killed and 473,000 were wounded during conventional air raids; 80,000 just in Tokyo.
It’s a tragic loss but he ended the war that was killing our own people. When someone hits you, hit them back ten times harder and don’t stop until they’re down.
I know only three things about Taft; that he existed, there’s a rumor he once got stuck in a White House bathtub because of his thunderous bulk, and that he was referred to as “Fatty” on an episode of The West Wing.
