It is an American company, therefore bound to US law, which means NSA involvement, which means guaranteed backdoors to encryption.

That’s a very strong assertion and, given an open-source client and a documented protocol, one that is very easy to prove if true. So I presume you can point at what, in the Signal protocol, is a backdoor in the encryption.
