War Plan Red - Wikipedia
Despite being allies in WW1, there was a lot of anti-UK sentiment in the USA in the late twenties and thirties and War Plan Red was a plan to go to war with Britain and Canada. Of course, the USA had a lot of plans in place back then (Orange, for instance, dealing with a potential threat from Japan). War Plan Red was updated as late as 1935, however, and was only shelved when Hitler invaded Poland.
But just imagine what the world might have been like if Britain and the USA had gone to war in the early thirties, exhausted themselves militarily whilst Germany stepped in to fill the power vacuum. Perhaps, the Third Reich would have achieved political dominance (and maybe even assumed the role of go-between and peacemaker for the USA and UK).
Hitler might have stayed his hand where Russia was concerned. Perhaps the Cold War might have started earlier with Germany the main supplier of the nuclear deterrent and leader of NATO (Nazi and Atlantic Treaty Organisation). Meanwhile, Winston Churchill ended his days as nothing more than a brandy drinking back-bencher.
So many possibilities
