There's the personal enrichment/corruption angle of the elites sucking off the carcass of the rotting American riches, but there's also the transition away from the nation-state model to a global technocracy headed by the WEF and all the shadowy interests it serves as a front for. If anything, American Empire is an impediment to the globalists' project as a strong nationalist entity like that would threaten their project. That's the best I can work out. But I'm sure there are lots of things going on at once.
Similar to Snakebite's point: Empire building is never about improving any country. It is always about improving the private lives of the individuals that control the government. This is true for absolutely everything that a ruler (so-called "government") does.
The only way to understand someone's choices ("the government"/the ruler) is to understand their incentives.
PS: Yes, the obvious question is "Why would anyone want rulers, then?". Well...

Short answer: money and power.
“Takes away money and power from US hegemony” is true for our country but individuals promoting this BS (like the Clintons) get rich.
