Agree

Yes

Eisenhower, as a military leader and president during the Cold War, likely would have seen the value in intelligence gathering for national security. However, the NSA was not established until 1952, and its domestic surveillance activities were not publicly known during Eisenhower's presidency, so it's unclear how strongly he would have supported this specific activity.
