It has started already.
Look at the stock market alone, USA economy, gold/silver all time high even before the biggest crash yesterday.
USA is no longer a superpower, they just haven't noticed it yet.

Well, I feel sorry for the first country that tries to test that theory.
One can make an argument the global dollar is losing its hold, or that the world is expanding away from US trade, which are both objectively true.
But to say the US is not a superpower is rather foolish.
I took exactly one British military officer in Greenland to stop the entire US Department of War.
I will grant the US is a superpower, even the largest. But they aren't the only one.
IMO, the USA probably is still a superpower. But the UK and France didn't realise they'd stopped being superpowers until the Suez Crisis, and I suspect the USA will only discover the loss of superpower status in a similar way. Though not exactly the same, given what happened in Vietnam and Afghanistan, let alone TACOing out of using force to take Greenland.
