If you have a mechanism (executive orders) that gives 1 person (the president) the ability to make unilateral decisions on what is going to happen, you are in fact not a democracy.
It’s actually quite surprising it’s taken this long for it to be abused the way it is now.
And yes I know they are technically not laws, but they may as well be. Everyone complies with them because they are afraid of any consequences if they don’t.
Not sure why I suddenly realised this as it seems quite obvious🧐
I don’t think any other western countries have any thing similar.
