American isolationism was a huge barrier to entry into the war. It took an attack on Pearl Harbor to seal the deal. history.state.gov American targets are at the end of a very long supply chain and no logistics of the Germans or Japanese coming over and enforcing their will on the vastness of Americas (North and South), India and China and Russia even with control over Africa and Malaysia is plausible. German / Mediterranean /Japanese cooperation beyond a temporary marriage of convenience was unstable and given the nuclear option I see a different but independent North America being a result of a "What-if scenario". There were multiple internal attempts on Hitler during the war and at the end. There would be no historical precedent for a territorial expansion that large into such a highly technological and populated region, and even the Romans had a Pax Romana driven by more by governance and inclusion than through on-going active subjugation, which is far more expensive and less sustainable.
