That process only works to a point, otherwise you get the French Revolution.

America is not France. A war here would be exceptionally bad for everyone.

Edit: Apologies, I am American and appropriately self-centered. I was not even considering a global stage. I strictly meant modern America is a completely different stage than 18th century France, and just assuming that it will play out the same is a dangerous mindset.

Good point, as we know France was a globally irrelevant country at the time.
