True. But I’m going to give America some credit here. When they came in, they came in hard. Two of the hardest beaches in Normandy with the highest losses of any allied force during the landings. Front line in pretty much every major engagement from the moment they entered. I am anti-american in general, and no…I don’t think Germany would have won if they hadn’t gotten involved (the soviets bought our victory at the cost of 11,000,000 casualties…)
They committed more troops than any other country except the soviet union and germany itself. I’ll criticise a LOT of what the United States has become, but I would never ever in a million years claim that they had “barely taken any damage”, and in fact kind of take offence to the statement even though I’m not American.
And the Soviets were the main opposition in ww2 so they were also destroyed.
America swooped in at the end, took the credit and used their position of barely having taken any damage to assert global dominance.

I was talking about destruction of infrastructure. America was all the way across the ocean. It took a little damage at Pearl Harbor.
Russia had their population and infrastructure gutted. Much of Europe did as well.
