Though I wonder why Eisenhower's report is so neutral given the report as mentioned virtually everyone who got involved with Mac Arthur did it for ideological reasons maybe he got purged or defected? The Republicans would likely do anything to win this war and brining your ex enemies into the fold is a classic tactic for a reason even if you must forgive and forget some of their actions.
Mainly because otherwise you think it he would receive a more a damning condemnation what he felt the USA could be and supported helping make the nightmares the Natcorp inflict across the US possible. You know being a American patriot who in his patriotic duty helped to set a up fascist state that's extensively relied on foreign support to butcher their own citizens on behalf of a man who acts like he's a king just like the founding father's clearly intended.
Our idea is that, throughout 1934, it is basically accepted that if the Natcorps haven't won already they are currently winning and all that's left to do is wrap up the fighting in New York. Keep in mind, Smith literally ran from the White House like a Byzantine Emperor and fled to a relatively small (geographically) region to hide out in. The Republicans might've been able to win at Syracuse, but they got utterly smoked in a ton of other battles by the U.S. Army. In the Midwest, the Natcorps easily thrashed the Republicans at the Battle of Rockford and have Chicago under siege. Philadelphia hasn't fallen yet, but it's getting hit with some of the most savage fighting in modern history by a better armed and better trained force. The Natcorps have massive air superiority. The international community at large is certainly not okay with them, but the Natcorps are getting a lot more support from Germany and Italy than the Republic is from the Allies.
This, of course, misses a lot, like the fact that the western and southern blocs are outside of Natcorp control, MacArthur lost the lion's share of the fleet, the Republicans are sitting on lots of resources to fuel their war machine, and are slowly closing the gap on a lot of other fronts (i.e., military technology-- should get an update of its own pretty soon, albeit it's not my strong suit). But all that takes time. In 1934, to a lot of generals, politicians, and business leaders, it sure looks like Al Smith has been exiled and military wunderkind Douglas MacArthur is in charge. MacArthur has done a great job at, basically, playing state. Lots of people are going to stand by him by default, without knowing the full implications, and by the time the regime's monstrous nature is fully revealed they'll already be neck-deep in a war against radical leftists that are trying to kill them. Eisenhower, for instance, doesn't know that the Supreme Court or his mentor Black Jack was murdered until it's too late.
