What was president Eisenhower's explanation of the domino theory? If one country falls to communism, the communists will know that they can succeed; and if they see that the US cannot, or will not intervene, then they will know that they migâ¦ht succeed with another country...and then another one, and so forth.
This theory was first articulated as American policy by President Dwight Eisenhower in 1954. However, the domino theory proved to be just a theory. Communism didn't spread around the world or through the region, and the U.S. didn't win the war-South Vietnam fell to the North Vietnamese forces.e was referencing the battle between French forces and the Vietminh (the communist forces of North Vietnam), and he began by explaining how economically important Vietnam was to the U.S. More importantly, however, was what Eisenhower called the 'falling domino' principle.
