Monkey See, Monkey Do effect...politicians do the same thing in US States. One state creates a law or a change in an existing law, and other states may imitate it. >without due process such as cars and boats,... Each US State makes their own laws, and around 1970s/1980s, they were passing laws like this for drug violations. Today, and I assume then, there were publications available for elected officials that have topics related to what's happening at state/federal levels. > He could of course declare tomorrow "mission accomplished" > and the public would just shrug their shoulders I assume the public reaction there would be somewhat similiar to US's public reaction, but skewed.

Duquesne Law ReviewDuquesne Law Review Volume 4 Number 1 Article 14 1965 The Legality of Nuremberg Twenty years have now passed and still the controversy continues as to whether or not the trials at Nuremberg were in compliance with inter-national law. Although the trials of the major war criminals are now left to the historian, they are still of great importance to the formulation of present international law and are therefore of great interest to the legal profession. Throughout the history of man war has plagued our society. At no time prior to the adoption of the Charter of the International Military Tribunal did the creation of war constitute a crime. The basic problem faced by Nuremberg was whether or not the Allies could make the creation of war a crime. In order to answer this question it must first be ascertained whether or not the Allies had jurisdiction to prescribe a mandate of this nature and, secondly, whether or not they had jurisdiction to enforce that mandate. https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/327126335.pdf
