Churchill’s Biggest Mistake - Believing Truman Was Doomed to Fail

July 1945, Potsdam. Winston Churchill walks into the room expecting another round with Franklin Roosevelt—only to find a little-known politician from Missouri in the big chair. In that moment, Churchill quietly decides: Harry S. Truman is not up to the job. This video tells the story of how that judgment became one of the biggest mistakes of his career. We follow Churchill and Truman from their tense first meetings at Potsdam, through the decision to use the atomic bomb, to their clash over empire and decolonization. Churchill flies to Missouri to warn about the coming “Iron Curtain,” but it’s Truman who goes on to build the actual strategy that holds the Soviet Union in check: the Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan, NATO, the Berlin Airlift, and even the firing of General MacArthur. This isn’t just a story about two famous men—it’s about a world shifting from empires and old elites to a harsher, more democratic age, where a failed haberdasher from Missouri could outplay the last great imperial statesman.
