However it is also true that the US, with or without Patton, was in no position in 1945 to attack the USSR and conquer it. The American public wanted an end to Hitler, and after that an end to Japan, and they wanted an end to the War. It would have been politically impossible as well as physically possible for the USSR to defeat the USSR on its own turf.
Just as it would have been impossible for the Soviets to defeat the USA on its own turf.
