No. Congress did not declare war and that the was point many protesters against the war argued about. They considered it an illegal war.
From a layman's point of view, a "lame-duck" president would be a president that everybody (including congress) simply ignored. He's there just to fill a space, until someone better comes along.
Wilson had formulated his famous "Fourteen Points" in 1918, intended to secure peace, arrange for an orderly establishment of new nations to replace the now fallen Axis Empires, and prevent future wars. His fourteenth point was the establishment of a "general association of nations" to enforce the other thirteen points and as a place where future conflicts between nations would be solved by arbitration instead of war. So basically, the League of Nations was Wilson's baby. His efforts to get it off the ground and to make the US join the League earned Wilson a Nobel Peace Prize, but in the end he could not get the US to join, because Congress feared that the League's articles of association (especially Article X) could at a future point draw the US into a war against its will.
I won't directly answer your question but I'll point you in the right direction. Look into what happened to Germany after the war.
The allies had nothing to gain from Wilson's 14 point plan of peace. They wanted the Germans to pay for all the damage they caused.

14 point plan
The Congress of Vienna was a turning point because it introduced the concept of working together to maintain peace. The Concert of Europe was established, with the European countries working together (in harmony) to retain peace and suppress uprisings in order to maintain the balance of power. Never before had there been such a long period of relative peace, especially with all of the nations working together.
The League of Nations was the only point that made it into the treaty.
bc there was an explosion and he never got to fully explain each point

Wilson proposed to have world peace in his 14-point speech he presented to Congress. Another name for the speech was the Woodrow Wilson Doctrine. This ran contrary to the isolationist movement that prevailed in most of the US.
14 Point Plan. In that was to be the League of Nations, similar to today's United Nations.
True because the point of the hypothesis test is to figure out the probability of the null hypothesis being true or false. If it is tested and it is true, then you do not reject but you reject it, when it is false.
The main point of contention within Wilson's 14 Points was Article 10, which guaranteed territorial integrity and political independence of all members within the League of Nations. Opponents to this plan felt that this condition would force Americans to fight the wars of foreigners. The main senator to object this point was Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Wilson's peace plan was a failed dream because he could not even get his own people to support it.
