Maybe but also factor in that people have been predicting the downfall of the USA since the 1960s.

    Christians have believed the rapture would happen in their life time since the crucifixion...

    It is basic narcissism.

    I am so special that I cannot conceive the world will continue without me, therefore it must end in my lifetime.

    We’ll fall right when the rapture happens. So, you know, any day now

    I thought the rapture was not the fall but just the beginning of a century or so of torment for those sinners left on earth.

    Maybe the rapture has already happened and so few people left that nobody noticed and this is the century of torment...
