Unless the US is incredibly devastated and have no army to left to speak of, it's in their own strategic best interest to come and defend us.
Plus, a cross pacific invasion would be a huge logistical nightmare without an intermediate base... With satellite imaging and radar tech, either a huge fleet of ships or an intermediate base would be picked up well ahead of any potential force trying to land here.
