During the US Invasion of Panama, 7 irrelevant, pissant countries tried to get the UN to issue a resolution demanding immediate US withdrawal.

It was vetoed by UK and France in addition to the US. If you leave the UN that only leaves us in the UK (France has shown itself to be an unreliable ally since then) who will definitely veto in your favour in any future issue, unless you do some crazy shit like invade France. Actually we probably would still definitely veto in your favour if you did that lol.

Seriously though, even though a military threat to the US is unlikely, the UN could be a pain in the ass if they wanted.
