No. The force is limited. Donald Trump is pure Yang... but energic tactics are costly. Trumps causes a negative reaction and he puts the people in risk. For example, Europe is considering new diplomacy.

USA is a giant... but with mud feet. Dollars go out, gold bars go in. Gadafi bye bye... but we keep buying gold bars and selling dollars.

Global militar bases are really expensive. How much time you believe USA can keep it? Without global money, in horrible debt and without allies. And with California and others thinking if to be part of this country (USA) is convenient really. See Texit and Calexit.
