What reinforced isoationist sentiments against US involvement in World War 2?

Reinforced isolationist sentiments in the U.S. before World War II were driven by the traumatic memory of World War I and its aftermath, which many Americans believed had brought unnecessary loss and hardship. The Great Depression further fueled a focus on domestic issues, leading to a reluctance to engage in foreign conflicts. 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.
