Patton would have had a mutiny on his hands, supported by the families back home.
Wouldn't have been popular. BUT if framed properly and correctly, it could have been sold. The MEDIA controlled and manipulated popular opinion then -- same as today. And...taking out the Soviets back made sense and WAS very do-able. IF everything was on the up and up (it wasn't).
Taking out the Soviets wasn't in the cards because the State Dept and other Comm-Symps within had already rigged this game, supplying Uncle Joe during the entire war WHILE rewarding him with Eastern Europe AND a bonus: A-Bomb plans.
