It is abundantly clear that the GOP has been corrupt since WWII. Not all at once but a slide in that direction and along came Joe McCarthy. With J. Edgar Hoover running the show behind the scenes, they haven't looked back since. J. Edgar may be long dead but his legacy lives on in people like Bill Barr, who will do anything for anyone in power behind the scenes because now they become indispensable and that is were the the real power lies.

Actually, Eisenhower would have been considered a liberal democrat by today's standards. He was a principled man (with flaws, of course) who cared a lot about this country and its people - the last non-corrupt Republican President. Read the excellent biography of Anna Rosenberg called "The Confidante" by Christopher Gorham.
