The dominant position of the USD on the world stage also might have something to do with the USA having deployed military to more than 150 countries at once and their involvement in regime changes all over the world.

Meanwhile the FED heroically partakes in piling on debt for the futures generations.

When your currency is the world reserve currency you are obligated to take on debt.

It's due to our centuries of issuing and paying off debt. No one is buying Treasuries because of our foreign policy.
