I always assumed America would swiftly deal with a racist fascist criminal megalomaniac.
Boy was I wrong.
This nation is WEAK.
Well instead of dealing with their fascist problem after WWII, they decided to repress (and sometimes kill) the most reliable antifascists - the leftists.
That said some countries that objectively did purge their fasists seem to still have that problem today. Perhaps the theory that capitalism creates fascism as it declines predicts this.
We also literally imported their scientists
Not just their scientists.
Look up operation bloodstone.
