No, there wasn't any appetite for War with Russia, but we had the Bomb and nobody else did so the Russians probably wouldn't have put up too much resistance.
After we dropped the 2 bombs on Japan, we were out of bombs, at least temporarily. We didn't have enough Uranium refined to bomb grade to make any more. Truman pretended he had some more to keep the Soviets from invading Iran, but he was bluffing.
