I think Truman’s greatest attribute was his honesty, which was the foundation of his being incorruptible. He said that you don’t get rich in politics unless you’re a crook. Proof of that was when he left the Presidency, he and his wife boarded a train to go home to Missouri, to live 9n his mother-in-law’s house. He’d never owned a house, because he couldn’t afford one.
Imagine any Politician today doing the same.
Yes, as far as Politicians-I have a soft for Truman-always liked plain concise speaking-and after all, I am from Missouri.
