This is ASB, unless the USA loses a war where the USN is reduced to a coast guard (sort of a Versailles in reverse), which is awful close to ASB. While navies are expensive, especially beginning in the middle third of the 19th century, the role of the navy in protecting the USA was accepted, even when cheese paring caused issues. If some "disaster" wrecks a bunch of navy ships in the interwar period, they will get replaced. Even the most extreme isolationists tended to be more accepting of spending on the navy - used for defense of our "moats" - as opposed to the army which was going to be used to go elsewhere as the threat of a land attack from Canada or Mexico was minimal.
