Well Industrial capacity and demand in the US is far better off in FFO then in OTL. Also could you see an FFO RN standing for King telling them to stay out of the Pacific or the MN? Even when he was just the Commander US Fleet up till March 1942 he fought constantly with Stark about implementing suggestions that the RN was making about improving the situation on the East Coast. FDR will know that the RN and England are not the damaged and nearly exhausted nation that they were in OTL and wont stand for attitude from King like they did in OTL, in an FFO world.(imo) As for how he will treat or react to the MN is another kettle of fish. There is no historical presedant for it other than how he treated the RN. Hence the reason I'm asking this question on the board for other input.
