I really don’t know about Eisenhower. He feels like a big swamp rat himself especially when Joe McCarthy called him out on putting communists and espionage agents in key spots in the CIA.
Not to mention McCarthy himself is a very close friend of the Kennedys and have their support.
The final nail in the coffin for me that convinced me was Truman’s secretary of defense, George Marshall. This man was the one who dealt foreign policy with China and probably was the one who is directly responsible for it to be loss to communism. Guess what? Good friends and partners with Eisenhower.
