One of those humorous questions I'd love a serious answer to.

For one, Rome didn't just keel over, it was a long and drawn out process over centuries, and even after the accepted date 476, there were still splinters calling itself "Roman Empire"...

And I truly hope that history will look back on the USA in the same way, and see how the decline didn't start (but certainly accelarated) in 2016.

Really not a fan of 2016 for several reasons

Everything really did become worse after 2016, didn't it?
