Indeed. He spent years trying to convince the USG to stop giving military equipment to Mao, saying they were using it to fight him and install a communist government. Commies in the US (not sure how high they went at the time, but I'm guessing all the way up to FDR) decided having Mao armed would push the Japs back, and I am not under any illusion that they didn't know what Mao would do to China. The US should have thrown full support behind Chiang Kai Shek, and defeated the commies early.
Not giving military and economic support to Chiang Kai Shek was a mistake... We should have backed him so he could crush Mao.
His abandonment literally happened because of communist infiltration in our government.
