At the time, the US was trying to practice Isolationism. They refrained form signing the treaty of versailles, and thus were never involved in the League of Nations.

Answer:

President Woodrow Wilson work for the league of nations but America never joined the league of nations, another reason was president Wilson's party lost the election of 1919 and his opponents promised to follow the policy of isolation.

President Woodrow Wilson realized the treaty of Versailles could not prevail peace and can create conflict in the coming future and it is not effective in maintaining the peace that is why America never joined the league of nations.
