Harry Truman's famous line fits perfectly for Pres Biden's speech on MAGA: “I never did give them hell. I just told the truth, and they thought it was hell.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~

indeed!

1. My favorite Truman line:

“Never let them bring the fight to you….bring it to them, and don’t apologize for anything”

9. And, it looks like "Sleepy Joe" is doing just that.

Isn't there some proverb about not waking sleeping giants?

3. I like Adlai Stevenson's quote, too

'I offer my opponents a bargain: if they will stop telling lies about us, I will stop telling the truth about them' - Adlai E. Stevenson II

11. One of my family members was part of Truman's cabinet and Stevenson's campaigns.

There were lots of stories about both of them. Also stories about when MacArthur was sacked.

13. Ha, ha. My family was a big Truman fan, too, except my Mom

turned against him when he sacked MacArthur. She didn't realize what an arrogant ass MacArthur could be. After reading McCullough's bio of Truman I liked Truman even more. In so many ways, Truman was the most "American" president we ever had.

15. Truman tapped my father to help returning disabled vets (from Korean War and

WW ll, and later Vietam)

My father also thought Biden had a lot of the same toughness as Truman.
