MEDAL & FAN ANYBODY? Which of the following statements explains why the United States Senate rejected the terms of the Treaty of Versailles? a. The leaders of the United States Senate believed that the United States should lead the League of Nations since the U.S. had won the war for the allies and the allies refused to let the U.S. lead. b. The United States Senate wanted to isolate the United States from the rest of the world not join into a league with all of the other nations of the world.
c. The Senate did not like President Wilson and since the League of Nations, developed by the treaty, was his idea the Senate decided to reject the treaty. d. None of the above statements is correct.

@confluxepic i think a .
Lodge argued that the U.S. was giving up too much power under the League of Nations, so he drafted 14 reservations—to match Wilson’s Fourteen Points—that reduced the control the league would have over the U.S. There was also a faction of the Senate known as the “irreconcilables,” led by William Borah, who opposed the Treaty of Versailles with or without reservations.
I think A is wrong.
They just din't want to be controlled.
is it a ?@confluxepic
b ?@confluxepic
It can't be B. They did not want to be isolated.
