The US is a perfect example of an abusive relationship where the abuser is really good at using emotions against the abused. Very good at love bombing and using the "this time I have changed" line and repeating the whole thing. While also somehow being seen as some kind of "respectable wealthy person" that makes big donations to "great causes" (of course is also a large part of why those causes are even needed). Eventually enough nations will be abused and will form groups to share their stories and support. And maybe even no one will want to "date" them, which will of course lead to the US claiming to be a "victim of cancellation" or whatever. But since the US and its victims are nations and not just individuals, shit is much worse and completely fucks/ruins/ends many more million people the longer it goes.
