Republican President General Dwight David "Ike" #Eisenhower planned the World War II invasion of France in 1944, which cost a lot of lives but was major and successful step in ending a war begun by a lunatic autocrat.
Eisenhower accepted responsibility for this invasion, whichever way it went. He drafted a speech to deliver if the invasion failed: "The troops, the air and the Navy did all that bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine alone." A responsible president.
When John F. Kennedy was assassinated, democrat Lyndon B. Johnson reached across the aisle, and Eisenhower came to his aid: On a visit to the Oval Office, Ike wrote out what he thought LBJ should tell an emergency session of Congress. A helpful president.
That was the kind of man that the #Republican Party used to admire and elect.

I’m grateful for all the devices we have these days to record what is happening.
Dwight D. Eisenhower viewed firsthand the crimes that were committed by the Germans at concentration camps when he visited the newly-liberated
He had the foresight to ensure a future where the crimes of the Holocaust could be denied would never exist.
And yet there are those who deny it.
Eisenhower, the last good Republican.

Truman had it right when he described MacArthur as a "stupid son-of-a-bitch"
