Within months we had a war machine superior to Germany in every way

No, it took years for us to get there. We spent 1941-1943 providing our allies with resources while strengthening ours. I understand you were trying to talk about how we built a superior army which we did but it took a lot longer than months.

Also, Germany had the most sophisticated army in the world at the start of the war which by the way was in 1939 for Germany. The term blitzkreig was coined to talk about how fast and efficient the German army was and nobody in the world could keep up. This is why they had so much earlier success

1930’s before shite hit the fan, the majority of America supported the movement in Germany but when China invaded Mongolia, the US started beefing up military. We weren’t close to being ready for war which is why it took us 2.5 years to fully get involved in the war.
