Due to inner turmoil, constant power grabs, greed, not having the means to maintain its borders.

The same thing is happening to the United States after 242 years. The Roman Empire lasted close to 1,000 years, finally falling in the early 6th century.

Trump thinks he is Caesar. The Congress powerless and UNWILLING to keep him from grabbing more power, setting us up to be conquered by the Barbarian hordes..

Be aware, people. We have the power to save this country. Truth IS truth.
