We've been hearing that since the start of the last century. People continually misjudge the states and the resolve of Americans.
They appear to be weak because of their political process, but they just flat out seem to be able to rise to the occasion to adversity.
I very much doubt that as a nation we're witnessing anything of the sort. And I'd prefer not to see it. A world with China or Russia as the predominant super power would be bad news.
