(Note Joe was more mischievieous looking in black and white)<\/p>\n<p>For the time being its more important to me to read the book &#8220;Truman&#8221; than campaign for Congress. Understanding the ground under my feet as a child puts today in perspective. In two weeks I&#8217;ve gotten to page 649 of 992 pages. Truman is facing the 1948 election that all the poobahs expected him to lose as did most Americans who were listening to the poobahs. Truman is facing a Soviet threat to swallow Berlin which is wholy in his sphere of East Germany and Truman single-handedly decided to air lift supplies to 2 million East Germans. <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Truman has set the US Congress up as the &#8220;do nothing Congress&#8221; he will win the election with. <\/p>\n<p>He has been cooresponding with Winston Churchill who was dumped before Japan was defeated in the Second World War shocking Americans who viewed him as Franklin Roosevelt&#8217;s equal in opposition to Nazi Germany. Winston lost as peacetime launched his nation&#8217;s unions against him just as Truman was bedeviled at home by Unions flexing their strength with stikes that Truman found a savvy way of discouraging.<\/p>\n<p>So, in one letter to Churchill who was feeling sorry for himself as a civilian Harry tied to buck him up by reminding him of how he would be remembered. &#8220;You can look back with satisfaction upon the overthrow of Nazism and Facism in the world. &#8220;Communism-so called -is our next great problem. I hope we can solve it without the blood and tears the other two [wars] cost.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That set me to thinking how much Trump genuflected before the all powerful Putin who is doing his best, and with great success, returning Russia to Joseph Stalin&#8217;s shadow. And if there was any doubt before he was defeated in 2020 his return is dedicated to making America into big brother&#8217;s image. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Post: Books, Scribbles and ChatGPT Next Post: Spock Click here if you want a return to Lincoln Weltyforcongress.com Joe Stalin poster being paraded&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[95,127,168],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38157"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=38157"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38157\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":38172,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38157\/revisions\/38172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=38157"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=38157"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=38157"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
