As you know, Germany was an absolute mess after World War I. Citizens were starving, and thousands of Germans had lost their job. Adolf Hitler saw this as an opportunity to manipulate Germans into thinking it was the Jews who had caused all their troubles. People were desperate and hopeless. They need someone to tell them what to do, and how to fix this mess. They needed someone to tell them who to blame for their starvation and their losses. Adolf Hitler, unfortunately, rose up and became that person.
"First, I want you to starve.
Then I want you to lose your job.
Now you're looking for someone to blame?
That's when I step in and start to dictate."
Answer: D. It felt the League of Nations would restrict America of its sovereignty.
Details:
The United States never joined the League of Nations, in spite of the fact that an organization such as the League of Nations was the signature idea of US President Woodrow Wilson. He had laid out 14 Points for establishing and maintaining world peace following the Great War (World War I). Point #14 was the establishment of an international peacekeeping association.
The Treaty of Versailles adopted that idea, but back home in the United States, there was not support for involving America in any association that could diminish US sovereignty over its own affairs or involve the US again in wars beyond those pertinent to the United States' own national security. Because of its objections to membership in the League of Nations, the United States Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles.

Explanation:Historians have identified several causes that led to the outbreak of the Cold War, including: tensions between the two nations at the end of World War II, the ideological conflict between both the United States and the Soviet Union, the emergence of nuclear weapons, and the fear of communism in the United States.
In June 1812, the United States declared war against Great Britain in reaction to three issues: the British economic blockade of France, the induction of thousands of neutral American seamen into the British Royal Navy against their will, and the British support of hostile Indian tribes along the Great Lakes frontier. A faction of Congress, made up mostly of western and southern congressmen, had been advocating the declaration of war for several years. These “War Hawks,” as they were known, hoped that war with Britain, which was preoccupied with its struggle against Napoleonic France, would result in U.S. territorial gains in Canada and British-protected Florida.
President Truman authorized the atomic bomb.
