► MacArthur began to call for the bombing of N. Korea (nuclear) ► Then, a small UN force fought off the Chinese, gained ground and pushed them back to the 38 th ► Truman began to question MacArthur’s leadership ► MacArthur challenged the authority of Truman and was fired ► This made Truman look bad, because the people supported MacArthur
