Fragment of a discussion from Comments:UK Supreme Court rules prorogation of parliament unlawful

Perchance, but snap elections are for legislatures. I've never heard of one for a directly elected (electoral college notwithstanding) president of any country. They usually have fixed terms.

While the US system seems the most stagnant and devoid of evolution in 230+ years, I kind of like that one does not need to be a Lady or Lord to be a Supreme Court Justice.

Not stagnant, if you include establishing precedents.
