No. The reasons for the war would have still been there. It all started 20 years before with WW1 and blaming the war on Germany. Germany had sanctions placed on it, they had to pay reparations, and couldn't form an army. By the time of the 1930's inflation was out of control and people were out of work. Hitler came along and cued into the emotional needs of the population ( very similar to what Trump has done) and held massive rallies. He was able to get himself elected and then basically overthrew the elected government and took control.

Woodrow Wilson proposed the League of Nations.
There are many things that are can arguably be in favor of the League of Nations. The League of Nations had many social successes by educating nations on the problems of drug smuggling and drug addiction.
Senators opposed U.S. membership in the League of Nations primarily due to concerns over national sovereignty, fearing that joining the League would obligate the U.S. to intervene in international conflicts without congressional approval. Additionally, they were wary of entangling alliances that could lead to future wars. Many believed that the League's structure was flawed and ineffective, arguing that it would not prevent conflict and might undermine U.S. interests. These concerns were often encapsulated in the broader isolationist sentiment prevalent in the post-World War I era.
Woodrow Wilson.
Lodge was deeply committed to keeping the United States out of an unnecessary involvement in foreign affairs and political matters. The League of Nations would throw America straight into that involvement.
The primary reason was they opposed Article X of the Covenant of the League of Nations. Part of what it would have done is made it so that if one member of the League was attacked by another country, all other League members would have to declare war and help the defender. Senate Republicans led by Henry Cabot Lodge said that that would mean that Congress would lose its constitutional authority to declare war. Their opposition meant that President Wilson was not able to get the two-thirds majority needed to ratify the treaty.
