The US public wasn't completely pleased with Eisenhower's increased involvement in Vietnam. In 1953 he pulled troops out of Korea altogether in a very popular move, but just one year later he increased US involvement in the US significantly. As a result, there were some who were not keen on increasing US involvement in Indochina. However, Joseph McArthy whipped up an anti-Communist frenzy in the early 1950s; many Americans hated and feared Communism as a result, so wouldn't have been opposed to action against it.
