Eisenhower, who led the US to victory in World War II, who had the balls as president to round up and physically, deport, illegal aliens. We need that courage today! I also say, Lincoln, he fought to keep the country together, he freed the slaves, ultimately gave his life for that effort. George Washington. He was a citizen soldier, was president, and did not buy all accounts enrich himself or act like King.
Ike also fought off everyone in congress and his own afonatratipn to maintain a balanced budget and conservative fiscal policy and refused to get us involved in the Suez. Most underrated president of the 20th century.
Although Eisenhower had it easier. The country was behind him. The media might criticize, but dare not demonize him.
If Eisenhower were president today, I doubt he could round up and deport illegals. The Deep State, Big Media, Big Tech, and Antifa/BLM storm troops, wouldn't allow it.
