Eisenhower believed that a combination of strong military deterrence, particularly through the development and threat of nuclear weapons, and an assertive foreign policy were essential to win the Cold War. He advocated for the policy of "containment" to prevent the spread of communism, while also emphasizing the importance of forming alliances, such as NATO, and supporting anti-communist regimes worldwide. Additionally, he recognized the need for economic and ideological competition to undermine the appeal of communism.

In what ways did the reaction of Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon mirror previous cold war ideology?

The cold war only started in 1945. Nixon & Johnson were both politicians within 5 years of that time frame. So they were both in the "heat" of the cold war. They didn't mirror the cold war...THEY WERE THE COLD WAR; Eisenhower was at the beginning, Kennedy was advised by Eisenhower, then Johnson & Nixon. Although President Truman was actually the US president when WWII ended & the cold war began, he was transitioning from the pre-atomic age to the atomic age (before 1945 & after 1945/1945 is the beginning of the atomic age). Eisenhower actually began to take over the reins in the midst (1952 presidential campaign) of the "cold war" with the "hot" battle of the Korean War taking place, "...I shall go to Korea!" (Eisenhower). Dwight Eisenhower was our first (non-transitioning) cold war president. Johnson & Nixon were our 3rd and 4th cold war presidents.
