Why did US President Woodrow Wilson ignore the US Senate while he was negotiating at Versailles?
ChuckSiata
At the time, US President Wilson believed he had the executive power to handle treaties. Nevertheless, he was certain that the US Senate would not have the two thirds majority to override a veto. He was wrong, and the US preferred to remain in an isolationist mode after World War One.
