This is Thomas Jefferson, who was a Republican leader when the party system took hold. He went on to become president of the United States and considered Alexander Hamilton to be a political rival.
Truman was the one who adopted a policy of containment. This (arguably) aggressive approach was what influenced America to get into wars such as the Korean War and other smaller conflicts. Meanwhile, Eisenhower was a bit less aggressive. Although his Secretary of State Dulles preached Brinksmanship and was very anti-Soviet, Eisenhower himself was somewhat against this, as shown when he did nothing to prevent the Hungarian Revolt. He also sought to increase U.S-Soviet Relations in the Spirit of Geneva, but the U-2 Incident pretty much erased most of his progress.
Explanation:
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and the United States and their respective allies, the Eastern Bloc and the Western Bloc, after World War II. The period is generally considered to span the 1947 Truman Doctrine to the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union.
