If the Great War was fought without nuclear weapons?

It's a hypothetical scenario. What if the war was fought without nuclear weapons and the nuclear holocaust was averted? I see a very long war of attrition between the U.S and China. With each country running long range bombing runs on each other. Respectively the West Coast would been hit hard in strategic bombing runs by Chinese aircraft carrying thermobaric weapons. Either way, L.A would've been fucked up and so would San Fran. And maybe further inland as well. So thoughts?

Think Dresden 1945, at least a million Germans killed in one air raid. Mass carpet bombing with napalm would potentially be most devastating than nukes, too.
