In these people's minds no one is right wing because all the people in wars used the centralized power of the state to enact their policies.

The massive expansion of the US govt under first Hoover then FDR was not related to a war that hadn't started yet.

Don't know enough about Churchill, but US and USSR were. The assumption is that militarily aggressive = right wing. That's incorrect. The Soviets started out as part of the Axis, and they weren't right wing.

I don't know that I would put the Nazi utopianism in the category of reactionary. They weren't trying to re-install the Kaiser. They were building New Man, just like the Soviets. Interesting question, though.

FDR was also on the left. The Nazis weren't labeled 'right wing' until they invaded the USSR. US communists urged non-involvement in WW2 until '41. At a glance, I'm not sure any of the major powers in WW2 would have been on the Taft/Reagan right.
