  • Harry S Truman
    THE MALEVOLENT PRESIDENT HARRY S TRUMAN Harry S Truman has been referred to as “little” but he was not at all short. He has been referred to as “limited” and as “ignorant” although these descriptors do not accurately capture his actual conduct. The key to understanding his character and his conduct, and the key to understanding why it is that he has been referred to as “little,” is to grasp that here we had an utterly malevolent man — someone who took the greatest of delight in the doing of harm to those of whose existence he disapproved, and in general to anyone who sought in any way to oppose his desires. He said to his biographer, David McCullough, “I never gave anybody hell, I just told the truth and they thought it was hell,” and the historian repeated this saying on page 664 in his 2003 Pulitzer-Prize-winning biography TRUMAN exactly as if the making of such an assertion meant that that assertion needed to be the truth. However, when Truman said that to his biographer, he was merely lying — lying again. All he ever knew to do was give people hell, and lie. In fact we can safely assert that this man’s life –like that “S” middle initial– stood for nothing at all.
