You are too partisan. Give credit where it is due: Truman brought the Pacific War to an honorable close, stood up to Stalin, stopped the Reds in Korea. Also, when he retired, he didn't take a cent from the large corporations or as a public speaker. Unlike Gerry Ford (who has taken millions from "service" on corporate boards), he believed it would taint his status as an ex-president. HST was a plain, but decent and well-intentioned man.

The reds are still in Korea. Too bad he didn't stop then in China, huh!
