Summary

Anti-Trump Americans, especially on the left, are showing a more subdued response to Trump’s 2024 reelection compared to the activism of 2016.

Exhaustion, disillusionment with repeated setbacks, and negative media coverage have led many to disengage from politics or shift focus to personal priorities.

Activist groups, like Women’s March, are planning protests but acknowledge lower enthusiasm and more localized efforts.

Experts suggest this “tune-out” may be a coping mechanism, with some hoping new, non-political participants will lead change.

Many feel drained but believe activism will eventually regain momentum.

    Why start now?

      Even more, what incentive is there for them? They know they will get the votes, and donations, from the blue no matter who crowd.

      They don’t need to change

      Just need to play them for absolute fools

        And after this last election, it has become clear that they don’t really care about the votes as long as they get the donations.

          I mean would you care about the votes, specially post fact? The money is already there, and they are only humans.
