D.

Answer 1

the answer would be D, its the only one that truly makes sense.

Answer 2

B) the economy is doing poorly, with high unemployment rates

Step-by-step explanation:

The president is democratically elected and his political capacity is directly associated with the results of his government and his popularity. If an economy comes out of a comforting economy and experiences high unemployment and economic recession, the president tends to lose support from civil society. As a result, parliamentary support also tends to be less, so the president becomes politically weaker.
