Why This Strategist Thinks the Erosion of U.S. Institutions Is Overstated
A new report from BCA Research suggests that the resilience of U.S. democratic institutions has been downplayed, despite growing concerns about governance during President Donald Trump’s tenure. Constitutional checks and balances still constrain the executive branch and preserve investor confidence.
The report argues that although the rule of law in the United States has declined over the past two decades and political polarization remains near its highest levels in history, institutions—including the Supreme Court, Congress, the Federal Reserve, and the election systems administered by the states—have continued to function as effective counterweights to presidential power. The report also adds that fears of a rapid slide into authoritarianism are exaggerated, even if financial deterioration over the long term remains a critically important structural risk.#BitMartToWindDownByJan2027 #SHIBSurges36% #CentralBanksWeighResponseAsOilNears$100 #USPausesIranStrikesSecondNight #PensionFundsTurnNetBuyersOfKoreanShares $TRUMP
