I came to comment basically the same thing. I don't think it's the end of the road for America even though all signs point to more dark times ahead. The Roman Republic and the Roman Empire both saw a LOT of corruption and strife throughout the centuries before they actually collapsed.

Maybe the last days of the American republic will see a lot of expansion before its imperial stage (that is now). Just like the Roman republic.
