Honestly I think were at the stage where the west is collapsing into empire.
The same stage the roman republic found itself in after carthrage fell. Is it in our interest to have this empire?
Probally not, but I think european weakness will force the united states to come in and prop it up. I think that there will be repeated attempt from the americans to create systems of self rule which will well fail. And require us to prop them up more, I think we will fall into empire by accident much like the romans before us.
The alternative if the Russians had won would be a west dominated by Russia which would be worse.
