The Spin
Left narrative
Trump has weaponized federal power into a tool of authoritarian control, freezing billions in infrastructure funds to punish Democratic cities and deploying troops against American citizens. This isn't governance — it's state-sponsored intimidation designed to crush dissent and democracy itself.
Right narrative
These so-called democracy protests are actually backed by the Communist Party of America and radical Marxist groups seeking to destroy the U.S.' democratic republic. Trump has secured borders, deported criminals and brought peace deals while protesters align with anti-American forces.
Metaculus Prediction
