“In Texas, for instance, Austin is clearly “blue” while West Texas is clearly “red.” If our state attempted to secede from the Union, I’m not sure which side would lead the effort”

The ones with the most guns, silly.

As soon as we start being an empire, you can start the clock.

Good thing the USA is vastly different than anything witnessed in history.

So toss out the old formulas.

The further away from Jesus that America moves, the further away we move from being a Republic.

We are teetering on the edge right now.

Well we can collpse and die or our good and honest and wisest people can start the 2nd American revolution by shoving the old systems, bureaucracies and the sexual immorality and the old parties aside. It will take repentence, sacrifice, and a taking stock of the mistakes that went into USA 1 so that the USA 2 can come back stronger than ever. It will be a country in which men will know what a man is and women will know what a woman is. We might have to lose some territory and some regions that would want to stay with us might have to be on probation.

We have seen great advances with regard to the rights of women and minorities, though we have far to go.

Not enough anti-white racism to suit him?

Or is he virtue signaling to the Left, "See, I'm really on you're side, please don't cancel me."

Biden arrived just in time to put some nails in the coffin.

No. We’re about 20 years from the century mark.

We were no ‘empire’ before WWII was won. Post-war ushered in the age of the dollar and 70 years of US hegemony.

Democrats and traitorous RINOs pissed it all away.

Unless and Nineveh style revival takes place, where everyone from the President on down dresses in sackcloth and sits in ashes, this nation is doomed.

I always refer back to 2 Chronicles 7:11-14, where it reads, "Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king's house: and all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously effected. And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice. If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Notice the part I highlighted, which almost no one mentions. God will discipline a nation that He calls His, He will judge it. That is exactly what is happening now, so unless this nation wakes up and realizes what is going on, and repents on a national level, there is no hope that it will be allowed to continue, to exist at all.

No. In our case, that would be Republics. Yes, it seems we are on the edge

The only problem is we have been an empire for 250 years. More like about 80 years

After the Roman Republic of nearly 400 years, the Roman Empire had another 400 year run.

After that the Holy Roman Empire of the Germanic Peoples lasted nearly 1,000 years.

The author is ignorant of history. And generally full of BS with an agenda.

People are voting with their feet now.

There is an exodus from blue states to free states going on, it will accelerate.

We could soon wind up with a de-facto separation into two nations.

Florida and Texas is where it starts...
Then Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Georgia..etc

Undesirables will flee the free states if the free states refuse to hand out freebies... the illegals would thus eschew the newly free states. All these would drift into the blue states and soon cause their collapse.

There is no need for walls where there is no welfare state.

Gimme a break. Even a 3rd grader knows that the Egyptian pharaohs ruled for 2800 years. This article is a bunch of BS.

The danger to the country is not war, but economic collapse. There is no willingness from either party to slow down government spending, and no effort to try to restore value to our money. Eventually, this inflation will lead to a vibrant black market and alternate economy that will be used by people who are productive. Cryptocurrency will be the center of this.

The Average age of empires is 250 years

Not sure where this person got this bit of information but it is very very wrong.
