HST was an old-timey Dem when Dems were actually pro-American. And he had the guts to drop the bomb(s) and end the war with Japan.

Truman was a likeable enough person who made the right decision on the A bombs.

Deed down tho I think his chief loyalty was to his party. LBJ got caught red handed trying to steal his first Senate election. I mean they had him dead to rights.

Truman sent Abe Fortas down to Texas to make sure the case never got to court.

I will give him one plus. Although he integrated the military, he once said Southerners did not need a bunch of Yankees coming down and telling them what to do.
