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.

Intense polarization and diminishing faith in government seem to be big factors.

opened a Ṁ200 NO at 67% order

Base rate since 2006 = 7/18 = 39%

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.
