Maybe they meant the end of "the United States as we know it," which could be right. Or, arguably, already is.
But as a lifelong resident of the US, your point about how long regimes can last is extra scary. Two of the biggest facets of this country's identity have been that we have a lot of money/resources and that we have a lot of weapons. Plus we have our special brand of "fuck y'all; got mine" culture.
It seems like a nasty recipe for a fascist regime to isolate and turtle up and just grind along for half a century.
