I guess we all agree that Japan neither had the intention nor the power to invade the US continent, right?
Well then, the US stays and we all know the B-36 and the purpose of it.
Whatever "Adsche" would have done right or wrong, if the war wouldn't have ended in time 1945, germany would have had it's own nuclear holocaust which eventually would have ended the war then.
Regarding BoB, the discussion about "what if" hitler wouldn't have changed the Luftwaffe attacks to capital british cities is pointless as well. Both sides have had their issues with previous tactics and nobody knows what would have happened if the Luftwaffe would have continued to attack british airbases.
Besides that, the Luftwaffe never achieved the air superiority required to invade GB like the allied air forces had when they started the normandy raid. It's further unlikely that the Luftwaffe capacities would have lasted to ensure air superiority for such a huge operation.
Just my 2 cents
