Because spineless Truman refused to charge them with treason -- the republican party became bold and bolder at lying and cheating -- see
exhibit A) the Red Scare courtesy of Macarthy and his minion Nixon
Exhibit B) Nixon paying the North Vietnamese to not attend the peace talks to ruin LBJ presidency
Exhibit C) the crime family that was the Nixon/Agnew white house with their minions who worked for Reagan and Bush Sr
Exhibit D) Reagan, Baker, et al paying money to the Iranians to hold onto the hostages so that they could win the election
Exhibit E) The crime family junior of the Reagan-Bush years
Exhibit F) Billy Barr -- the scumbag that keeps on giving -- and the pardons of the Raygun crime syndicate
Exhibit G) W and the lies about WMD so that they could get rich on oil

So, yeah lying and criminal has been synonymous with Republican since the 1930s
