Why did America struggle to gain the support of the people in South Vietnam?

Stalin and Mao's help to the Viet Minh in 1950, changed the front line dynamic and international character of the battle. Under Truman the help went from $10M in September 1950 to $150M before the finish of 1951. Kennedy sent 500 more military consultants, bringing American powers there to 1,400. U.S. missions were completed at a more reliable rate by conveying expanding measures of military help from the US. Their primary aim was to confine Socialist development in Indochina as they suspected it would before long prompt Socialist takeovers in Thailand, Laos, Malaya, and all of what later became Vietnam. This would have brought about an adjustment in overall influence all through Asia. The U.S. saw public safety in US and Western Europe's inclinations being minimized because of the ascent of Socialist development.
