Woodrow Wilson.
After the elections of 1918, US senate was dominated by Republicans. However, even the majority party was divided over the issue of Treaty of Versailles. Woodrow Wilson despite all his efforts could not muster required two third majority to ratify the treaty.

Why was U.S. President Wilson unsuccessful in his attempt to get Senate approval for the Treaty of Versailles? Most of the Senators did not agree with the U.S. policy of isolationism. The Senate felt the treaty would limit U.S. independence in world affairs. Many Republican Senators favored greater U.S. involvement in world affairs. The Senate urged greater U.S. involvement in the League of Nations.
