The US was allied with the "Allies" before the US become formally involved in the war. They were already providing material aid to Britain/France before Pearl Harbor / war declared by Germany. I'm definitely not the one who is "unaware" of the key details in this discussion.

The US provided support to the side they ideologically agreed with -- it wasn't just a case of "Germany randomly declares war on the US".

The US also provided support (lend-lease) to the USSR.
