USA allied with the Axis during WW2

What, if anything, could have driven the US to fight on the side of the Axis during WW2?

Could this have logically have happened or is this too big of a stretch?

Thanks!

In addition to selling arms to Britain during the early stages of the war, the US is also selling arms to Germany- While Europe finds itself engrossed in an ever escalating war, Churchill issues a stern warning against the US supporting UK's enemy.

After months of failure to heed Britain's warning, the Royal Navy sinks an American ship off a European coast enroute to Germany.

While not as far out as some things that have come up lately, this is pretty much in the "not gonna happen" end of the scale.

If anything, the U.S. would stay completely out of the war before it jumped in with Germany & Hitler.
 
Against who? It's certainly not going to be against the UK. [1]

Now, if we have the Soviet Union under the leadership of Nutzikoff Kutyorballzoffski (died of a bad case of chicken pox at age of 5 OTL) invade Europe in 1939, and the US is on the side of the Nazis AND the French and British, that's another thing. But you need a Fascist US to get the US to come in on the Nazi side for any WWII like ours.

[1] BaB, Churchill was not an idiot, nor a madman, nor yet a 13-year old internet poster.

the only way this coud happen would be if Japan had never attacked pearl harbour. then using his cunning as a public speaker, Adolf hitler convinces the Americans that the Communist threat is greater then the National socialist plans. Japan instead of taking the America's is happy to own the Countries of SE Asia, including Siberia, micro-nesia and the continent of Austrailia, while Germany and Italy are left to divide up Africa and southern Europe. Germany would of course, lay claim to the former USSR to the Ural mountains. (labensraum) Living space.
