To be fair the US is like what 247 years old? Thats a toddler in the grand scheme of things. And the founding fathers did not have a lot of confidence in this thing lasting.
"At the end of the Constitutional Convention, George Washington said, "I do not expect the Constitution to last for more than 20 years." Today, the United States has the oldest written constitution in the world."
If anything what the country has achieved over the years is pretty darn good. For a large part of its existence, the US also wasn't this super power that we know of today. The future is unwritten but maybe we will see an isolated US that is left to tend to only its own internal issues.
