You are blaming the GOP (whose economic policies are the primary driver of low birth rates) for electing Trump. Good job!

I'm sorry but I strongly disagree that political policies generally lead to higher or lower birth rates.

Birth rates are largely correlated to the developmental level of a country at a more macro-level.

Disagree if you wish but it's mostly an economic decision.
On that basis we’d be expecting to see birth-rates go up.
How so?
