There is some truth to that but there is another principle reason and it is far more profound: As a nation, the majority has turned its back on God and His ways. Thus, they have rejected His protection. The consequences of this are only BEGINNING to be felt.
There is always hope, however. I fully believe that God will use all of this to finally wake us up...though we are in for far more terrifying consequences before that “wake up” is fully realized.
For the last my prayer has been that the Lord will bring this nation back to him, no matter what it costs. I fear the cost will be very dear.
