In the 1930s research had shown that the United States had received much incorrect information before "The Great War" (World War 1). The United States had no desire to be drawn into another war because of a bunch of lies.
Americans against involvement in the war in Europe often argued that the United States should prioritize isolationism, focusing on domestic issues rather than foreign conflicts. They believed that entering the war would lead to unnecessary loss of American lives and entangle the nation in European affairs. In contrast, President Roosevelt and others viewed blocking German and Japanese expansion as crucial for global stability and American security, believing that unchecked aggression would threaten democracy and lead to further conflicts that could eventually draw the U.S. in regardless. Thus, they felt it was essential to intervene to prevent the spread of totalitarian regimes.

Isolationist sentiments in the U.S. during World War II were reinforced by the trauma of World War I, which many Americans believed had resulted in unnecessary loss of life and resources. The Great Depression also fostered a focus on domestic issues, making foreign conflicts seem less relevant.

The widespread belief in the efficacy of neutrality further solidified resistance to involvement in the conflict.
The sinking of the RMS Lusitania in May 1915 caused significant outrage among Americans against Germany. The British ocean liner was torpedoed by a German U-boat, resulting in the deaths of 1,198 passengers, including 128 Americans.

This act was seen as a violation of neutral rights and fueled calls for action against Germany.

Additionally, influential groups, such as the America First Committee, promoted the idea that involvement in European wars could jeopardize national security and distract from pressing economic concerns at home. This isolationist sentiment was also reflected in legislation like the Neutrality Acts, which aimed to keep the U.S. out of international conflicts.
