What should he and Churchill have done differently?

Not going to comment on Churchill, but FDR should have stayed out of the war in the first place.
And Woodrow Wilson before him.

I absolutely agree on Wilson. 20/20 hindsight, yes, but if we had not intervened in 1917 and tipped the scales, WWI would've ended much differently. No Draconian Treaty of Versailles might well have meant no Nazi ascendency in Germany and maybe no major war in Europe.
Once Hitler was there and the die was cast I don't think non-intervention was in the cards, but I always part ways with my libertarian/AC brethren on geopolitics.
I still see the snd result of isolationism as a complete loss of freedom.
