First came Korea, where Democrat Harry Truman waged a limited war, and the first conflict fought alongside the United Nations. America’s – and democracy’s – position in the region was made worse by the fall of China to Mao in 1949. Ultimately, the terrible loss of life in the Korean Peninsula ended in a bloody stalemate. Again, we feel Alger Hiss’ influence because he convinced FDR to allow the Soviets to occupy Manchuria, giving communism a foothold in the Pacific. Then came Vietnam, the war Lyndon Johnson campaigned against but escalated, and that Richard Nixon won, only to be defunded by radical Democrats in 1975, causing America’s first loss in war.
