📊 Analysis Synthesis

This order represents a significant consolidation of executive power and a move towards unilateralism that could erode democratic norms. It reflects historical precedents of U.S. withdrawal from international bodies when perceived misalignments with national interests occur, potentially weakening the rule of law in an international context. While not overtly unconstitutional, these actions raise concerns about long-term implications for governance.
