And should! The world is too big to be "filled" by United States. Realistic policy is not to be everything for everyone - it is to participate in or manage multipolar balances. We're not a hyperpower because we want to be. We're a hyperpower because no other nation on the planet has the ability and/or the willingness to play a stabilizing role.
We're stuck with interventionism until other nations step up and do their part.
