FDR certainly did not have Churchill’s grit or vision, but I have to give FDR a reluctant pass here.
The Red Army of 1945 was tough, experienced, and well-lead. Certainly not the bumbling Red Army of 1940. The Western Allies could have forced them back, but it would have been terrible and bloody.
Congress never would have stood for it. And neither would have the American people. It took awhile, but these three got the job done peacefully.
