Yes, as long as the losing party pays all legal fees, it’s our constitutional right to sue anyone for any reason
While Truman was a strong supporter of individual rights, there is no evidence to suggest that he would support the idea of suing anyone for any reason, especially with the stipulation that the losing party pays all legal fees.

Yes, any business should be held liable if the primary use of its product is for illegal activity
Truman's stance on business liability is not well-documented, but given his general support for business and economic growth, it is unlikely that he would support holding businesses liable if the primary use of its product is for illegal activity, especially without evidence of negligence or direct involvement.
