Germany and Japan were stupid for thinking they could take us on. Trump would have given them a warning that’s more convincing.

Hitler did NOT want to go to war with the US.

Heck he didn’t want to go to war with England!

For some stupid reason, he thought our blood and thoughts were like his.

Given the state of our forces(navy/army) they took a chance because we had to patrol two oceans, which we could not do effectively with what we had at the time and the army was a pitiful shell of what was needed to fight.

It was the then idled industrial might that Tojo and Hitler badly underestimated.

It was a gamble and they lost.

Bigly.
