How so?

Until recently we had unipolar world order under the control of the USA. Lots of 'democracies' under her 'protection' (euphemistic term for military outposts). Once an empire starts withdrawing from outposts, others come in to fill the power vacuum. Notice, for example, how quick the Chinese government were to open diplomatic relations with the Taliban.
Add to this the fact that US citizens don't/can't even trust their election results anymore, and you have the perfect storm. Senile presidents, no popular consensus and loss of overseas outposts all adds up to a gradual decline in military projection power.
