Portrait of Harry S Truman, President of the United States. TEXT: "I could never lend myself to any transaction, however respectable, that would commercialise on the prestige and dignity of the office of the Presidency. Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook."
Just a reminder of what an ethical, respectable President used to be like.

I really had to go fact check if #HarrySTruman really said this, because it just seemed too good to be true. But it is !!
According to Snopes.com
And ALSO the 90% (!!) “marginal”/corporate tax rate during the Presidency of #IKE, #PresidentDwightDEisenhower. It was.
$400,000 then is $4 Mil now!

I can point to the machine that Biden inherited from prior president's back to #HarrySTruman, why didn't THEY do anything but arm #Israel to the teeth for decades?? Why didn't Trump? Why didn't Obama? But you expect Biden to abandon the 10 million citizens of #Israel??
