Want jibber-jabber? Here's some more:

U.S. doesn't need to be dispensable or indispensable.

U.S. can and will change politically as a reaction to Trump, and economically as reaction to over-financialization.

War will continue to be further relegated towards history, while catastrophes will again be endured.

What has been seen as separate objectively, culturally, territorially and economically will be re-seen as combined.

"Externality, finitude, commons and cooperation" are watchwords for the 21st century.

A great generational crossing is underway and empires are dying, yet Rome is eternal.
