If you were POTUS in December 1941

Knowing what you know now, would you join the Axis or the Allies?

Is this a trick question?

I'd fight the country who just attacked me

It's from Draconian, so there's some smart-arse gotcha in here that he thinks makes a point but actually doesnt.

Is this a serious question?

I'm interested in what lesson the OP is trying to teach us with this ridiculous question.

We know what Donald Trump would do if he were POTUS in 1941, don't we?

Knowing what we know now or knowing what we knew in December 1941?

Hmm,
Not teaming up with that butcher Stalin (killed more than Hitler) and wrecking the Soviet Union does have an appeal.

The Allies. The Germany, Italy and Japan of today are that way because of how WWII unfolded.

Allies but once I conquered a country I would have claimed the land and made slaves out of their native population while at the same time never allowing them to produce offspring. Eventually i would have ended slavery as well as their entire culture.

Since the attack by the Japanese occurred on December 7th, corresponding with their declaration of war, AND Germany, because of their treaty of alliance with Japan declared war on us on December 11th - we were then in a formal state of war with Japan AND Germany. Germany, at that point, had occupied France and was in a formal state of war with allied powers Great Britain and the Soviet Union.
So, knowing what I know now, I join the Allies and do things differently to set up post war conditions in Europe.
There is literally no sense in joining the Axis. Period. Full stop.

Allies.
I'd take Berlin before Russia (we could have), and I'd go to war with Russia immediately after.

I'd join the A-Team. Mr. T and George Peppard could kick arse.

Honestly by 1941 the board was pretty much set due to the terms of surrender after World War I. After Japan chose to bomb Pearl Harbor there was no choosing.
What I would have done was give the western countries favorable terms after World War I so as to try and prevent World War II... Except Turkey. I would have stepped on its neck.
... But the arc of history is a funny thing. Russia and the former Warsaw pact nations may be the only reason why Western Civilization survives the next century.
