Lol imagine having all that power and using it for gestures around at collapsing Empire

Guess that's what happens when you base a whole country on slavery and grifting.
America has only been an empire for a short time as far as empires go. All countries built on Imperialism collapse eventually due to their inherent flaws (spreading too thin, overestimating their superiority, their actions being based on pseudoscientific "dog eat dog" philosophy) and the US is no different. If you want your society to survive you have to ditch the right-wing BS because that only creates a flash in the pan until one day you lose one too many battles as the people you crush get sick of your shit.
The only way to win in the long term is to not be an empire in the first place.
