Summary

Following Trump’s 2024 election victory, the fervor of anti-Trump media and resistance movements has sharply declined.

Outlets like Drudge Report and MSNBC have seen significant viewership drops, while platforms like X (formerly Twitter) face progressive disengagement as figures like Nicolle Wallace and The Guardian pull back.

The “Resistance 2.0” appears muted compared to 2016, with fewer protests, diminished media energy, and a waning appetite for anti-Trump political books.

Critics worry this apathy could weaken opposition to Trump’s more radical second-term agenda, leaving backlash dependent on his upcoming actions.

    They are worried that people aren’t buying their charade anymore. The duopoly is not working and that leaves a power vaccuum for an actual workers movement that can threaten them. People aren’t outraged at Trump because they are outraged at the system, at the economy, at the crimes we commit and thats dangerous.
