Alone? How the hell?

Get realistic. Ask a question like "what if the US had entered the War in the spring of 1941".

What the fcuk? Why the hell would we?

Because in this scenario, Roosevelt would see Hitler for who he truly is before WWII would start and thus try to stop him as soon as possible and by any means possible.
He pretty much did.

No, not alone. What if Roosevelt threatened to withhold American loans and funds from Britain and France if they did not join the U.S. and fight Germany in order to prevent the German conquest of Czechoslovakia.
They wouldn't have cared in the slightest.

   Concerning the isolationists, its ironic that many of them, such as Wheeler (who was a key backer of FDR in 1932 and was hoping to be on the ticket), Lafollette, Norris etc. backed much of the New Deal.
Which is part of the reason Roosevelt had to tread so carefully.
