Meh, platitudes. America is NOT a melting pot anymore. It’s becoming more tribal and more divided every single day. Once a high-trust society, that trust is exsanguinating like a wound where you just can’t stop the bleeding. America as an empire has no future. Before too long, we will be a collection of Balkanized regions, loosely connected to an impotent central government that is out of money, out of ideas, and out of favor.

I do believe you have missed the point of Darrell Scott's "platitudinous" speech.
While America's many enemies sound much like you just posted, pessimistic and defeatist of where America is and where we are headed while touting their superior appraisals, Scott said that now is an opportunity to "TURN" this ship of State to avoid the shipwrecks you foresee and to aim for our higher ideals as a Nation, a safer port, whether we succeed or not.
Meh? Did you say "meh" to Scott's speech? Did you really post that, backwoods-engineer? Honestly? Did you understand the speech (Did you listen?) with the intelligent mind you've been given by God and then say..."meh"? I guess you did.
