Leo Szilard wrote a letter in Albert Einstein's name and had Einstein sign it (because Einstein was well known and thus much more likely that the president would take the letter seriously than if the letter was written in Szilard's name).
The moment Stimson informed him that the project to build atomic bombs existed and that Franklin D. Roosevelt had already issued orders for the Army to plan to use them on Japan, after Truman was sworn in as president following Franklin D. Roosevelt's death. Truman saw no reason to change these plans.
the Nazi didn't build the atomic bomb the Americans did....
It takes very little time to build an atomic bomb, once a country has the necessary industrial infrastructure to produce the fissile material.

The Manhattan Project was the secret project to design and build the world's first atomic bomb.

His theory about atomic fusion helped in the development of the bomb. He also convinced the president to develop the research in it. In the last 25 years of his life he questioned himself concerning the use and development of the bomb and was unhappy that he had helped build the theory and foundation of atomic theory.
The atomic bomb was developed by the Manhattan Project led by Robert Oppenheimer. What Einstein did was to write to the President. He and several other scientists told Roosevelt of efforts in Nazi Germany to purify uranium-235, which could be used to build an atomic bomb. The President put the plans in work to build the bomb.
