The real question (s)
1. Would Trump have engaged the Russians at the end of WWII and told them to get the hell out of Germany, and the other countries.... I say, yes he would have.
2. Would Trump have allowed MacArther to push our troops deep into N. Korea where they were trapped like rats by hundreds of thousands of Chinese? I’d say heck no. He would NOT have got us into Korea.
3. WWII? Don’t know. I think he would have unleashed Patton and the war may have ended sooner.
4. Japan, I think he would have dropped the bomb, maybe sooner, who knows.
“Japan, I think he would have dropped the bomb, maybe sooner, who knows.”
The bomb wasn’t ready sooner... the U.S. was down to the wire on everything with those two nuclear devices. The power required, the technology at the time excetera... We used every scrap of nuclear material that could be made for the testing and the two bombs that were delivered and dropped. In fact we were not sure the second bomb, which was a different triggering mechanism, was going to work at all because it had not been tested.
So... history decided the timeline and it looks like we dropped those bombs on Japan when they were ready. It really came down to the wire and was the epitome of a just-in-time production run. With no backup or follow-on to fall back upon.
