Is America slowly making itself the enemy of the world?

The power of a country or group will not last forever, the US dominance in the world will also not be forever at the top, it will be gradually eroded by the development of the world where other powers will grow large and overthrow the powers that have long been leading, you know how the United States behaves as it pleases in this world and no one fights back because they are very powerful both in the military and in the economy, what is happening today such as the existence of BRICS and resistance to the dollar is a form of starting to erode the dominance of the US which I think this will be at the door where the US will no longer be that strong.

You are correct about the first part but not the second.

US has never been powerful, neither militarily nor economically. Imagine a track with dozens of runners in it. There are those who run ahead, then there are those who are behind (that included US). That was the world before the world wars. US was that runner far behind that nobody could even see. Then someone came along and started shooting the front runners in the knees and as they dropped to the ground incapable of running, US caught up and got past them. That is the result of 3 word wars WW1, WW2, Cold War aka WW3 that destroyed most of the world while US was largely intact.

But obviously those front runners were not supposed to stay down forever. Eventually they got back up, their knees healed and they started running again. Since US was always weak, they could easily catch up and get past in only 2-3 decades.
When you look at things like this, you can easily understand why the US regime has been trying to destabilize the world all these years. Because that's the only reason they rose to power and they think repetition of the 3 World Wars and destruction and destabilization of the rest of the world is the only way they can stay ahead and not become insignificant and fall apart.

The United States is a superpower and has remained at the absolute top, with no one able to challenge its leading position for many decades. That is undeniable.

But things are clearly changing. China has risen to become the world's second-largest economy and is challenging the US in almost every area, from technology and trade to geopolitical influence. At the same time, the rise of BRICS is creating significant pressure on the dominant position of the USD. The power of the United States has never faced so many challenges at the same time as it does now.

To be fair, we cannot be certain whether China and the BRICS can overthrow American dominance. But I agree with you on one thing: nothing lasts forever. The time will come when American dominance will collapse, and that is inevitable.

Slowly? America is just been America, this is who they are right from the beginning, they should have become the enemy of the world already, but I guess it just doesn't matter.

I  can't survive in America, this is just me, my country people believe that America is the best in the world, you get job and you live a good life but that's not so true, they have their own disadvantages too.

Guns are free and can be owned by anyone, you can get shot at any time, taxes are killing, you have to work your ass to stupor to survive unless you have some good skills or degree, such world isn't just for me.

The only problem in my country is insecurity, but I will rather struggle here and survive or get killed than living in a country where I don't belong originally.

If it was that easy, then there wouldn't be tens of thousands, in fact over hundreds of thousands of people all over USA as a nation, people on the streets dying off drugs. Moreover, they are not happy to be there either. But if you are coming from a nation with a minimum wage of 100 dollars per month, going to a nation with nearly 10 bucks per hour, becomes suddenly better and you are happier because you saw economically worse situations, so you want to do better here.

And to be fair, if you ignore the healthcare problem that they are facing, rest are economically fine compared to many many poor nations. I rather be in most of Europe than USA, but I would rather be in the USA than most of the poor nations.

US, Russia and other nations with nuclear weapons need to be sanctioned but when US is the UN, who is going to sanction the US? US will do things that other countries will see to be wrong but UN will only be looking because strong nations like US control UN. There supposed to be no nuclear weapon in the world if they do not want any country to make nuclear weapon.

What baffles me that I found it hard to come to a logical understanding with is how some group of countries feels they have the right to own nuclear weapons but the rest of the world doesn't have same right. Does that mean their sovereignty is more sovereign than the sovereignty of the rest of the countries of the world.
Only the almighty in the heavens knows what Benjamin Netanyahu has as a hold on Donald Trump to have made him drag the US into a war that previous administrations for decades has being avoiding to take a frontline stand as Trump is doing today. A war Iran is currently winning diplomatically with their full control of the Strait of Hormuz.

Kind off though, America has caused a lot of trouble all around the globe because of their personal interests. Which has made them one of the most hated countries and now the Tariffs and policies Trump makes is causing lots of hardship for people who are innocent. This  war they are fighting with Iran has made a lot countries economic become hard. My country for instance has  hiked the price of Petrol Higher likewise other countries too who also export oil from the middle East. Everyone knows that the USA are the most powerful countries in the world but I feel they misuse that privilege into causing suffering. Look at Palestine, more people are dying every day while the United States keeps sending billions and weapons to Israel instead of them to find a peaceful ways to resolve the issue. Like I said before everything they do is for their personal interests. They could have been the greatest country if they choose to stay neutral and pursue world peace instead of personal interests.

That is not hard to understand at all. Because we live in an unequal world. A world where the strong make the rules and they want to maintain their dominance rather than share it with others.
If the United States were to allow other nations to possess nuclear weapons, it would be no different from voluntarily giving up its own dominance.

If you study human history and empires, you will see they did similar things to the United States is doing today to stay on top. But history has also proven that every empire has its expiration date, no matter how hard they fight to hold it together.

As the victor of the last world war, the U.S. enjoys greater freedom due to its military might and extensive influence. And all countries are aware of this. Whether or not a country is considered an enemy actually depends on which country is in question. In reality, there are those who support every action taken by the US, and there are also those who do not support the things the US does. So I think creating an enemy for their country is certainly possible, but creating an ally is just as possible. So I think it all comes down to a balance, depending on the interests of each country. It depends on which side each country currently stands on whether they’re for or against. That’s all I think. So, calling it “making the world an enemy” is still uncertain, in my view. Especially if a new president is elected who might implement policies different from the current ones. Then, each country’s assessment could change again.

To keep the discussion from going down the wrong path, we should clarify - not the United States, but Trump and President Trump's Administration.

Has any US president in the modern era (post-WWII) never ordered his troops to take up arms? I think every US president has had a war agenda that will never end, either for their own interests or those of close allies.

...

The US is not an exception but a classic example of the 20th-21st century. This is what many countries do. This is not an excuse for the U.S. and its presidents, but gather complete information about wars of any scale and look at the big picture, not hysterically.
But in this topic it is not about the military aspect, but about frankly idiotic measures taken in relation to many countries, especially partners and friendly ones !
And we can say that Trump and Co. behave more aggressively towards partners and friendly ones than towards outright enemies.....
