I don’t think it would’ve been bad for Bruno if Wilson won as long as Germany wins the First World War
This baffled Wilson, who had been assured by his many backers that he was the guaranteed favorite for the election. This would have been the case if Bruno had not invested so heavily in his downfall, as Wilson had won the 1912 election via a landslide victory in Bruno's past life.

Bull Moose Party! I wish Teddy had won the election
Hence why Teddy Roosevelt and his neo-imperialistic policies were not favored by the public. Nor were Woodrow Wilson's foreign policy ideas, which Bruno had unearthed and brought to the public's attention. Wilson's ideas supported armed intervention in foreign nations to spread American ideals of democracy and liberty, as if it were a right given to them by God.

Yep
In doing so, Wilson effectively forced the Weimar Republic into existence, which, by extension, led to the rise of the Nazi Party—a result of the Republic's monumental and catastrophic failures as a nation-state.

Amen to that. Him refusing to join allowed the rise of communism
Isolationism vs. Globalism—that was what the current U.S. election meant. And Bruno would do everything in his power to prevent Woodrow Wilson's rise to the Presidency. There were few men in modern history, even among those who waved the banner of Marxism, that Bruno detested more than the 28th President of the United States.

Such a warm gesture and a loving statement were more than enough to make Bruno feel welcomed upon stepping off the train, which took him from Hamburg to Berlin, and witnessing his loved ones waiting for his return.

If only H-man stopped changing plans they coulda won
Not because he served in the air force in his past life, but he was what one might call a "military history buff" and knew all about the tactics used by various militaries and their branches throughout history, especially modern history.

Negative
Emperor Meiji had taken these words to heart and tasked his engineers with coming up with something based upon the recommendations Bruno had made. The Japanese had a rather impressive ability to make domestic military equipment and had done so to a rather absurd extent in Bruno's past life.

Because he was born into a Christian family, and was saved while fighting the communists or orthodox Russia.
But Bruno did not desire such an outcome. For one particular reason. The fate of Constantinople would remain uncertain should this occur. Having found God in this new lease on life Bruno saw it as his Christian duty to drag the Turks into this war so that the Hagia Sophia and Constantinople ended up back in the hands of Christendom where it rightfully belonged.
