So what?
The US used to have a English King. They kicked them out and made the country their own CHANGING things to a new US way.
You are so stupid saying 'ya but...once upon a time...'
Do you know any history Spain, Italy, countries in Africa, and so on and so all have been ruled by outside nations at times and have some elements of their law based on those legacy rulings.
But what that DOES NOT MEAN today, is that the historical laws, EVEN ONCE CHANGED are what matter.
Trump IS a rapist by American Federal law and can be called that without him able to sue you successful, as the matter is SETTLED in law.
No amount of BUT US LAW CAME FOR ENGLISH law, changes the above fact.
