Hello, my name is Charles
President Truman’s popularity was so low after firing General MacArthur that he didn’t even run for a second election to the presidency. Eisenhower, one of the other Generals of the Army, ran and won. He would become a popular president, and made noises about sending more troops to Korea. China soon agreed to a ceasefire in the Korean conflict rather than risk total commitment from another of the generals that won World War II.
