Other countries would now be prudent to regulate their affairs so as to minimise or eliminate their dependency on the United States - it is no longer a question of waiting out until the next United States elections. And other political systems would be wise to limit what can be done within their own constitutions by executive order, and to strengthen the roles of the legislature and the judiciary (and also of internal independent legal advice within government). What is happening in the United States can happen elsewhere. It can happen here.
