This question will use The Economist's Democracy Index, resolving YES if the United States' democracy score is lower in the next report (to be published in early 2025) compared to the last report (which can be found here).
If the United States' democracy score for 2024 is the same or higher, this question resolves NO.

Trump election chance = 45-50%
I don't understand why this is at 71%
@Siebe The "data":
This is the Ecommunist, which is left-wing propaganda, and will 100% lower the index in 2024 now that papa Trump is back. You may have had a good point prior to election, though.
@AlQuinn The Economist is left-wing propaganda? I mean, it's been a while since I was a subscriber, but when I was, its economic opinions and policy recommendations could have come from a right-wing think tank. It was what we were encouraged to read during my Commerce degree, by the same professors who were busy explaining why left-wing views on economics were wrong but intuitive, and free markets were generally good, price controls and tariffs bad.
Meanwhile, Trump is illiterate and thinks tariffs are good, among many other incorrect beliefs with which right-wingers in the US are now required to pretend to agree, so that confuses what a "right wing" economic position even is, in the US, now.
