America is not in danger of falling, as we so often hear. America has fallen, as you alluded to. Our problem is not political, but spiritual. We have kicked God out from our nation, and this mess is what we get.
You went right for the jugular. Well done.
We have kicked God out from our nation, and this mess is what we get.

And we have put money and prosperity above principle.
We used to refuse to deal with countries with human rights violations, for example.
Now we MUST do business with China, for the money, and because if we don’t someone else will.
We used to hold to principal even ‘to our hurt’. And God honored that.
And now, as I heard from a pundit, we are in a Nationalist(Trump) vs Socialist(Dems) mode (like Europe). Europe is a wreck. Even a Nationalist Europe is a wreck.
We may really be in the end times.
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." -John Adams
The quote that always seems to come back to me.
>>> We have kicked God out from our nation, and this mess is what we get.
True. The following was (perhaps wrongly) attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville:
“America is great because America is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”
