Ban on Sunday trade, restrictions on alcohol consumption, planned restrictions on animals. That's in opposite to Trump, who wants to give people more freedom, PiS takes it away.

Court reforms are clearly politically motivated and would be unthinkable in the US. They keep or even increase their support because the opposition is terrible, they often make contradictory statements regarding important issues or embarrass themselves like ex-Modern Party leader - Ryszard Petru.

But the prices are on the rise and new taxes/restrictions are either start to come up (as mentioned in the beginning of the post) or will have to be put. In the 1970s there was a big improvement in the living standards thanks to the foreign loans but as debt increased, the economic crisis began and it eventually escalated to the martial law.

The light in the tunnel for opposition is the fact that PiS would struggle to find a stable coalition if unable to gain absolute majority (see 2005-2007 years) and if six parties did indeed reach the next parliament, PiS would have to top 40%, which is easier said that done in the election year. Popular reforms are already done and it's hard to think of other major things that can gather further support while a lot of problems loom ahead.
