        Truman was refused admission by West Point for poor eyesight. He cheated on an eye exam to join the Missouri National Guard, and headed to France in WWI. He took part in the enormous Meuse-Argonne Offensive, and ended the war as a captain.

        Can we just find a video of Harry and play it on loop instead of Cheeto?

        That is exactly what I was going to suggest! President Truman didn't think this day was a celebration in his honor.

        Now this was a man who deserved to speak on Memorial Day at Arlington. He served in WWI and had to try at least three times to get in because his eyesight was so bad. Wanted to serve that badly. #ILoveHarryTruman

        Place Truman's words by the flag in every school?! Modeling/setting example, admitting mistake! Proving his words about the buck's wherabouts were not empty?

        There is evidence of that a person was sent by the FBI, paid with our tax dollars to make contact with Trump campaign advisors under false pretenses and report back to the FBI. This person was on the record pro-Hillary. You can call that what you want, I call that a spy.

        I am reading Trumans autobiography. My grandmother and Aunt Rose met him and got a signed copy for my Dad. His words in the preface resonate today under our current climate.pic.twitter.com/1unRMIvqbp
