Well, reality is often stranger than fiction and wars started over more idiotic reasons.
A chain of events could perhaps lead to a war between the US and Sweden with no need for some drastic changes like a dictatorship. Maybe a belligerent US president with a warmongering clique, personal bias, misunderstandings and a slightly more anti-US Sweden could culminate in escalation.
Also NATO and partners of the US not supporting this invasion? There were OTL multiple cases of corruption and putting US interests above their own country's, what's to stop some corrupt or US assets from turning a blind eye until it blows up in their faces?
Still, even with a NATO country willing to support such an invasion... the longer the conflict drags on the less stable that government will become and will eventually concede to public demand, though West Germany had the tenancy to ignore said public demand given the hundreds of protests that happen from the 60s to 90s.
