Can it be reasonably said that the US is an imperial power? If so, on what grounds? If not, why not?

The United States of America is the culmination of a series of prophecies- it is an amalgamation- Every nation is in her- Those who attack her are in her- every nation has streamed towards her-Her precepts have become- a benchmark of freedom worldwide- these precepts as expressed in her constitution have created something beyond a nation- it has created the Myth that is America- the Imperial bullying beast of the West- Old Satan which is to many- the land of the Free and Brave
How can there be such good and such ill-will to one nation
I tell you- America is the last humane superentity within our globe- it is as imperial as Rome but only because the rest of the world is in so much chaos and various states of brigand despotism

Absolutely yes.The legitimacy of imperialism is based on the concept of terra nullius. Globalisation assumes terra nullius applies to the whole planet. The US is at the forefront of globalisation both as an ideology and practically through the power of its corporations.
