It must be cause and effect ? It couldn't be that they overextended themselves with their empire.
Relative to your point, it would be ironic if having Trump in power and our taking on protectionist policies ends up (in the long run) appearing to be the cause of our continued decreasing influence and relative wealth in the world.
Perhaps this is the master plan of the globalists ?
Britain's world lead vanished a few decades after they embraced Free Trade to protectionist Germany and USA.

That difference was largely due to a United States benefiting from free markets as compared to a HIGHLY regulated great Britain. I'm sure an untapped natural wealth of resources in the USA (as compared to the UK) helped. However, if natural resources were the main driver of wealth creation, then Africa, Australia, and Asia would have all been competitors with the USA.

Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, and especially modern day China are the master plan template of the "globalists". The global elites don't want individual freedoms to get in the way of their plans for world domination. See the EU as an example.
