President Truman had a very difficult decision to make in terms of dropping the atomic bomb. Before dropping the bomb, Truman was hoping to get an unconditional surrender from Japan after the demands made at the Potsdam Conference. However, Japan refused.

It was because the election of the Republicans to senate and Congress made them angry and they knew that the anti slavery sentiment as well as the imposition of tarries on the state were to be levied, the people in the convention wanted out of the deal.
