As bad as the destruction of World War II was, it could have been a lot worse if technology had developed an additional decade. Hell, having nuclear weapons first deployed as a weapon of mass destruction helped keep it from being deployed in later wars.
Maybe the USA was going to go fascist no matter what, so time travelers picked the most incompetent fascist.
