Probably none of our government’s foreign wars and adventures will actually stop until the dollar loses reserve currency status and our economy collapses. Or our government needs to become a lot more afraid of we citizens. Neither seems all that likely anytime soon. So we muddle through…
We will keep muddling onwards, much like the Brits do today. The Brits have the 2nd most bases outside their own country among all nations in the world. They are active partners of the US empire, even when they shouldn't. The French do so as well.
Spain muddled along as an empire until the French Revolution disrupted things, and then the Spanish still kept their empire for a hundred years.
The quicker the empire dies, the better for the average American citizen and the world.
