Hard to see things going that way.

We've just started to rein in inflation. I don't think anyone (Fed, politicians, or the public) has the stomach for more QE.

when the banks fall and the system is collapsing, this is their only answer

see 2008, 2020

This is a very bold prediction.

Given how aggressively we expanded the money supply just a few years ago, mass bank failures seem quite unlikely as asset price increases generated quite a bit of equity leaving plenty of buffer room for loan defaults.

Still plenty of liquidity out there. Commercial real estate is not a systemic threat.
