The Nazis and Communists hated each other as much as the US and the USSR did during the Cold War. They would not strike a deal of any kind, and even if they were to, America would not be the force to stop it. Bare in mind, by the time American troops reached Germany, the Soviet Union had nearly defeated Germany. America did not save the day. The Battle of Stalingrad was the point in which Germany's defeat became a real possibility.

This is of course assuming Nazism would even have happened. Germany was striving to be like the rest of Europe before either World War had happened. The rest of Europe had national pride (that nationalism is what drove them to think they were better and created a desire to spread Europeanism and colonialism to the rest of the world, like America), and Germany wanted to mirror this. The only way for America not to exist would be the removal of that idea, and Germany probably wouldn't exist without that idea, so Nazism may not have even happened.

Hardly -- and to where is it that the whole world runs when their own countries and cultures don't work out for them?

Imagine no USA, there would be no safety net for millions of impoverished Central Americans and Mexicans.

And all the inventions of the USA -- the world wouldn't have telephones, televisions, computers, electricity.

I think you need a history lesson....Russia was the country that invaded Berlin and caused Hitler to snuff himself.

Without the US the world would be a far more peaceful place.
