They did not want to get entangled yet again to the affairs of Europeans, especially after the chaotic affairs in WWI. Neutrality was a precedent long set by Washington. Plus like you said how Senate did not pass the Treay of Versailles, especially the irreconcilables led by Borah and Johnson, and other proponets like Lodge, especially Article X, providing for the League of Nations.

Other reasons might be that happened in Europe did not actually directly impact the United States. Americans believed their encircling seas granted them immunity from the facist uprisings, while the disilussion of WWI played large role, such as the ungrateful debtor nation. Public sentiements did however reflect being isolationists, as seen through the Neutraility Acts. However they began to advocate "everything short of war," through things such as cash-and-carry, Destroyer-Bases Deal. Only by the Pearl Harbor, does the American public really favor WWII.
