Tranter, you're being sentimental. Reality is much different whoever is POTUS.
America is in decline, not the best economy ever. There is a recurring pattern of history – like it or not, empires die. All of them.
Venezuela oil didn't save them.
The tariffs won't save the US farmers - Trump with the bully tactics fcked up, but that's his style.
The fore fathers warned against a distructive path - no one listened. Having the greatest military won't save you either (Russia)
It all comes down to 3 things -Money Debt & Confidence. It's worth, the amount, and lack of.
Nothing lasts forever
