The Russians were certainly tough soldiers who had been through hell (our troops too but not as long a period of time) but our air superiority, massive numbers of equipment, I believe, would have eventually won the day, even without nukes - if we were just talking about pushing the Soviets out of Eastern Europe.

To completely destroy the Soviets would have taken longer, but still, the Allies would have eventually prevailed.

The United States was supplying Soviet Russia with war material. If all that were cut off, I don’t think Russia could have made up the difference on their own.

Russian would have starved. 50%+ of their food stuffs was coming from the US.
