why did the soviet union mistrust the united state and britain during world war 2?
Partly the distrust was due to Stalin's personal paranoia. Stalin trusted no one. The one and only person he ever brought himself to trust was Adolph Hitler, when they were partners in crime, each merrily invading his neighbors between 1939 and 1941. And then his buddy Hitler stabbed him in the back and invaded Russia.
There was a more concrete reason for the distrust though. Both the US, and to a greater extent the UK had sent military forces to Russia just after WWI ended, to try to help the "White Russians" beat the Reds, the communists, of whom Stalin was one, and who nevertheless held on and eventually were able to consolidate their control over Russia. So the US and the UK were unsuccessful in strangling the communist revolution in Russia in the crib. But they had continued to be vocal in denouncing communism in general and the Soviet Union in particular. The Russians had never forgotten this.
