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.

      How about minority rights, accessibility to health care, environmental protections, women’s pay gap and career opportunity in general, black president, woman vice president, safety laws, life expectancy.

          All of the numbers suggest otherwise, but don’t let that get in the way of what you believe in your heart.

            Your nonsequitur has nothing to do with me.

              You are the one claiming that my multiple examples don’t counter his one example.

                I wasn’t claiming, I was letting you know.

                  It literally wasn’t a nonsequitor. Maybe you should put more energy into making sense instead of trying to make catchy gotchas.
