The US only got involved in April 1917 and it took us a long time to get fully mobilized so we where not a real threat until 1918.What "won" WWI was the fact that the other powers had been fighting for four years and their nations where on the verge of collapse.
All I can say for WWII is it is a good thing that Hitler was stupid enough to attack the Soviet Union and then turn around a few months later and declare war on the US two nations that had nearly unlimited manpower(and woman). Logistics the real war winner or loser if you lack it.
Also as you say no one nation alone "wins" a war of such scale.In fact no war is truly "won" one side usually achieves its goals or both sides tire and sue for peace.
