There's a lot of alt. history World War II scenarios, but one I've never seen is: what would the war have looked like if The US was placed in Germany's position geographically, politically and objectives-wise.
Could they have conquered Europe? Could they have survived Russia's onslaught?

You haven't seen it because the entire notion is retarded, and would require an enormous re-writing of world history.
In large part, because it's geographically ridiculous. Pic related. Trying to cram America in there, before you get to the rest of the cultural and diplomatic absurdity, would give any thinking person a headache.

sorry for my stupid comment, but just to be clear...
If the US was literally Germany. With all the Same German Politics, and all the same German land features and such?
I suppose Russia would've gotten nuked in 1945

So basically an alt. history scenario if Germany had better military technology? Probably wouldn't turn out too different

They would have captured Stalingrad briefly in 1943 and pushed another 35 kms further in the southern USSR, then would have been pushed back after a couple months and would surrendered on October 19, 1945.
Everything else would have been the same.

Germanys problem was not tech or command related. It was manpower related, but their true issue was resources, oil in particular.

>they had no oil
this is overly emphasised
if you read german military dairies (or books citing them), they rarely mention lack of fuel, or lack of anything
they mention it its scarce, or that supply is dodgy to get
but what they "whine" about is always how their infantry platoons consists of 15men 5 of which are chefs
