Trump’s anti-immigration push isn’t going to help things, but the USA has an oddly high fertility ratio given its wealth. It will be a problem, but not as bad as other countries.
Is America going to have a population problem like other countries are have nowadays?

Could you be more specific what the ‘population problem’ you are referring to is?

Probably just the classic “capitalism squeezing people’s time and money, thus making it nearly impossible to make babies”

Like with the falling birth rate?

Like with people fleeing many of the states/country?

I’m not sure what OP means specifically. There are other countries that are struggling with birth rates. But maybe they meant with US citizens leaving the US?

Not if the comment section has anything to do with it!

Yes, the USA has already today similar population problems: declining birth rates and an aging population. These problems are not yet as dominant as in some other countries (Japan, Germany, Italy, China) but except for some sub-Saharan countries, practically all countries across the globe are confronted by this.
