Look at the United Kingdom giving the United States a run for their money.

after brexit, nothing was ever the same, they fell for russian propaganda just like the US did, and us is basically going through the initial stages of "USEXIT"

After 1979 really, but more realistically the rot set in a bit earlier in the 70s when the banks were given the power to start cannibalising the economy and got away with blaming the damage on trade unions and OPEC.

Pretty similar timeline for US, i think more or less after JFK when they started destroying FDR legacy.
