        When elected office was public service to country and nation and not a tool of private interest and monetary gain.

        Such respect and decorum! I guess Ike's staff didn't pre-date Clinton's by removing all of the "F" keys from the phones and typewriters. 🤣

        Make that just typewriters. They'd still be using rotary phones back in '61. 😊

        Anything on the Clinton Admin removing all the Ws from keyboards? Immature, but is trivial compared to Trumps own camp transition.
