My guess is that T.R. was from the interventionist side of American politics...you "carry a big stick" approach to diplomacy,  didn't he bring an end to the Russo-Japanese war with the Portsmouth conference of 1905? Also he was a strong advocate of U.S. involvement in the First world war - after the Lusitania; so I hardly think that T.R. was an isolationist by any stretch. I do believe he would have supported the League of Nations,  but only on a qualified basis.

I believe Warren Harding would have still died in this ATL; T.R. would have run in 1924 and he would have chosen Charles Dawes as occurred in RL. There would have been no LaFollette running that year and T.R. would have done better than Coolidge would have, holding Oklahoma and Tennessee as well as Wisconsin and picking up Virginia and North Carolina.
