After WWI even if the communist revolution in Russia is crushed, the various socialist party in Italy, French and Germany take power and gradually absorb with diplomatic means a little economic coercion and some sponsored coup the various nation of continental Europe in the Union of the European Socialist Republic (think more yugoslavia mixed economy than Stalinism); the annexation of Austria to the Socialist Republic of Germany and the quick repression of the attempted right wing coup in Spain who bring this nation on the socialist side scared England who begin a rearmament program under the Mosley government.
In the USA the business coup is a reality with McArthur as the military figurehead of a fascist regime who quickly repress any rebellion but remain shacky in his foundation and after a couple of years sign an alliance with the Great Britain regime of Mosley and the fascist government of Beria in Moscow to counteract the growing red menace.
In the meantime tension grown in East Europe when border dispute of EUSR member Germany and Italy menace of destroy the balance of power in Europe and bring the UK (and his allies) in another war

Yes i know is ASB is just fun

I don't see it happening. A united European Federation by the 1930's-40's is implausible enough given that a whole lot of states had just obtained independence and weren't about to give it up. Besides that, European and American global aims don't conflict enough to warrant a war. Besides besides, such a war would be unwinnable by either side, should this scenario actually come about. Which is really, really, really unlikely.
 
Socialist USA against a nationalist/fascist Europe, after the Americans attempt to "liberate" European colonies in the Caribbean and attack Canada? ASB probably, but could it be made into a non-ASB TL?
 
I think your best bet is massive communist revolutions in Europe after a much worse WW1. If France, Germany, and Russia go communist, you can bet many of the smaller states will go with them. It strikes me as the only feasible way for such a European confederation of sorts to come about so quickly, and it has the benefit of being hostile to the USA, due to the Red Scare in the US and whatnot. The question is, over what do they go to war? A push for 'world revolution'?
