Based on Musk’s statements about the declining birth rate, there is speculation that in the second term of the Trump administration in the United States, abortion rights laws may become even stricter.
Greater concern for women’s rights
Since Trump’s victory in the United States presidential election, concern about women’s rights has increased. Due to fear that their right to abortion will be taken away, sales of contraceptive drugs have increased almost 1,000 percent. In fact, in 2022, the United States Supreme Court abolished the right to abortion, during which time Trump had supported this court decision.

At the same time, Trump’s biggest ally, Elon Musk, had also called abortion murder during the election campaign. In such a situation, from Elon Musk’s continuous posts about the return of the Trump government and population, it is estimated that the laws related to this may become stricter.
Is the United States moving towards a demographic crisis?
If we talk about the population of the United States, currently there is no demographic crisis in the United States like that of China, Japan or South Korea. Although there has been a decline in the birth rate around the world since the 1970s, according to the Wall Street Journal report published in 2021, the birth rate in the United States has been below the minimum replacement level, i.e. 2.1, for almost 50 years. Currently, the United States birth rate is 1.7 children per woman.
By the year 2080, the country’s population will peak and then the population of the United States will begin to decline. According to the US Census report, by 2080 the population of the United States will be around 37 crore, while in 2100 it will decrease to 366 crore.
