No, I blame Harry Truman for firing MacArthur instead of listening to him.

We had the bomb, no one else did at the time.

We should have used it on both China and the USSR.

You can’t be serious. MacArthur botched the Korean War from the start. Many consider him the worst general in U.S. history, and he probably would have been fired after he lost the Philippines in World War II, except that he was so popular with the public.
