Never forget that the Democratic party was the party of slavery and had a Grand Wizard of the KKK in congress just a few years ago. That is why I don't understand black people voting for them. They also promoted the BLM riots, which were NOT in black peoples' best interest.
The dems have a troubled past and recent past with the BLM riots. Horrible. But lets not forgot the current white power people and white nationalists are all behind Trump and MAGA.
Defined "destroyed". If you mean the country will turn into a deserted scorched wilderness, then your premise is incorrect. Nobody thinks Dem rule will create such a scenario. If by destroyed, you mean a lower standard of living and loss of rights, then Canada/Europe aren't good yardsticks by which to measure because Dems are well on there way to creating said scenario.
Answering the OP's question is easy, Canada and Europe rely on the USA for defense, Trade and commerce. When the day of reckoning comes and the US loses it's world reserve currency status, it will be game over for us, Canada, and Europe.
Americas financial policy is at the tipping point.
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy"
"The Left"?
What we view as Left is not the same as other countries. Obviously Cuba is not the same as Canada, and Venezuela is not the same as the UK. Or are they
Well, Canada does have a Castro as Prime Minister ….. just sayin.
If this is news to you, better start doing some research on ole boy Justin’s family tree.

If you read what I said I used Mark Levin's definition which is capitalism is totally replaced by socialism.
That scenario does not exist in Canada or in Europe.

Europe has its Euro. If we falter its possible the Euro could become the reserve currency. Canada will just side with the Euro.
I believe we are at a tipping point and will probably slip into a decade or two of malaise or worse.

You need military muscle to be the world reserve currency, The Europeans have no cohesive unified military.
While the yen is pegged to the dollar and is not a current threat, that can change in an instance. The Chinese always play the long game, and are well on there way to building a formidable world class military.

The Yen is not pegged to the Dollar.
The EU is falling apart. Too much infighting and too much navel gazing about racism or something.
The thing is America is not Europe or Canada. Our Founding Fathers fought a war to prevent this land from becoming West Britain. Will it take another war to prevent us from going back to that type of rule and rules?
As others have pointed out Europe is made up of State sized countries that often have state sized problems. Of course they are plagued with the same problems we face such as Illegal Immigration. I will never forget speaking with a Hotel receptionist when we were checking in during a trip to the Cotswolds. This was back in 2016 and many of the people we met on that trip were so eager to talk about Trump. Anyways this woman at that Hotel was nearing retirement and she had recently received a letter from the Government that her retirement pension was being held up and that she would have to work for another year. The reason was that England had to build housing for all the "migrants" that were streaming into the country. Imagine getting a letter like that? but then again do we really need to imagine because OUR Government is actually treating Illegal Aliens better than citizens.
Another issue are the high taxes. I have inlaws in Ireland and they are paying 40-50% in taxes. It is great that they have Free healthcare but it is pretty basic and in some cases barbaric.
The Left, the Socialists in those countries run the show because the People do not know any better. Perhaps we have it too good in America with our Freedoms, Choices and Options? Turning us into a country modeled on Europe as the Left is trying to do would in fact destroy America.

The founding fathers were fighting against a monarchy. King Charles is not going to rule us today, he does not even have any real power in the UK.
I don't want us to be like Europe or Canada. I think the reason we still lead in innovation in so many areas is because we have more freedoms, less taxes and less regulations. But if it happened we would not be destroyed we would be changed. We would no longer be exceptional but middle of the road like Australia, Canada or Europe. Probably less poverty but less wealth. Innovation would continue to shift to Asia because all the regulations and taxes would stifle that kind of thing here.
