In both countries, the long-run implications of such angry populist movements for the health of democratic institutions need to be pondered. This is particularly true for India, where elections are vigorous and common people participate in them more enthusiastically than in the US, but other democratic institutions remain weak and sometimes dysfunctional, and the judiciary is too slow and occasionally corrupt.
美印两国都需要思考如此愤怒的民粹运动对民主制度的长期影响。其中印度尤其如此，因为那里的竞选活动活跃，普通人相比美国参与热情更高，但同时其他民主机构又不够强大，有些甚至无法正常运转，而且司法程序过于缓慢，偶尔还会发生腐败现象。
