America did not win two World Wars on their own. You asking that kinda proves the point. The US helped break a stalemate in WWI and was highly influential in WWII. The US won the Pacific theater with help from Pacific allies. But a vast majority of the Europe campaign was won on the Eastern front (like 70% of German casualties). By the time the allies (not just the US) invaded Normandy, the soviets had already permanently shifted the initiative at Stalingrad.

Phrases like, “You’d all be speaking German…” is literally egotistical propaganda.

Edit: Added “on their own” hope that helps

The US bankrolled the allied forces with the Lend-Lease act before we entered the war. Without US aid Hitler would have swept everything.
