Most Americans believed the war was a European conflict and didn't want to get involved.
The prevailing thought was that the US adopted the policy of Isolationism. However, it's more likely they adopted instead the policy of non-intervention, where it chose not to take a side, but actively mediate for peace. That did not last as the war went on, and they entered the war on 1917, taking the side of the Allies.
Unrestricted Submarine Warfare.
On August 4, 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed U.S. neutrality in the European war. This changed abruptly on May 7, 1915, when a German submarine sank the British ocean liner Lusitania with 1,198 people aboard, among them over 100 Americans. When Germany announced on January 31, 1917 a policy of unrestricted submarine warfare, the United States cut diplomatic ties with Germany.

When World War One developed, the US followed a policy of neutrality towards the nations involved in that conflict. In 1917, however, the German announcement that it would resume unrestricted submarine warfare pushed the US into the war against Germany and her allies.
Neutrality had been a big mistake.
US Foreign Policy prior to US entry in World War I in 1917 was a policy of ISOLATIONISM and NEUTRALITY, with an official avoidance of heightened commerce with all parties involved in the war. However, Wilson intended to bring the US into the war on the side of the allies and covertly supported the British war effort. He did not make this official policy because entering the war would be incredibly unpopular.
