Will the US ever get back to where they were, as the world's only superpower and "world police"?

I just don't see how we're going back.

unlikely, at least not during this generation. even putting aside the current admin, the US has (to put it extremely lightly) long failed to police its own and certain "allies'" behavior, which undermines the concept altogether.

at this point, there are unfortunately no "good guys" at the state level.

Someone has to prevent the execution of journalist who speak out against the regime and that has no due process and also have highest execution rate of any country. They labeled "Authoritarian state" by Amnesty International and Humans Rights Watch and "Systemic human-rights violator" by the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Oh wait, i mixed up Saudi Arabia one of the US's closets allies with Venezuela.
