Fall comes about when you assume it won't happen, a lot of Americans assume the US will never fall, that is where the real risk is because if you don't see what is going on or you ignore it, you end up allowing the fall to happen and only realize it when it's too late, a bit like what happened with Rome and countless others.
Also arrogance plays a big part in that if you assume you are the best without question, you end up ignoring what is going on else ware around the world.
The US has a lot of problems ahead of it and Trump is the figurehead of those problems, so getting rid of Trump doesn't solve the problem because a lot of Americans voted him in, in other words, the problems in the US are very deep with a lot of people to create such a divide and that isn't going to be easy to fix no matter what leader to have because the real issue is in US society.
Once the dream that was once Rome isn't there any more, why should the people fight for a system that doesn't work for them any more?, that is the case with the US and the American dream, a lot more people are starting to see it as a nightmare not a dream.
