Freddy Mercury is still alive today while Trump died of AIDS on 1991
With all the horrible and sad things going I just wanted to do another Timeline much better than ours
How would Trump's death in the Nineties from AIDS affect the US?
Freddy now gets to experience the rise of Grunge, Post-Grunge, Nu-Metal, Rap, Groove Metal, Industrial Metal, Metalcore, Djent, Alternative Metal, Pop-Rock, Pop-Punk, etc.
He would see gay characters in TV Shows and Movies.
What kind of movements would he support and how would his support change things?

Baron Trump won't exist. We'd have another hose for The Apprentice. The 2016 elections would either be Hillary Clinton vs. Ted Cruz or Bernie Sanders vs. Ted Cruz.

A timeline where Trump does not exist likely does not have the cancel culture and political correctness we have today, if we have a culture like that someone like Steve Jobs would run in that platform and win.

I don't think so. The SJW era and the rise of the far-right was linked to the refugee movement into Europe in 2014-15. Removing Trump from the TL would mean we won't see his nastiness, but someone else would take his place. Trump was not the only one who exhibited this behavior. Mostly there were baby boomers in their late 50s-60s when Obama won 2008.

Removing the Syrian Civil war is possible, just extend H1N1 to the first half of 2010s and for removing Trump have the U.S. actually recover from the 2008 recession completely in Obama's term aside from not having him able to run.

Or maybe the Syrian Civil War is ended early (2011-2012), which was the uprising phase. I don't think the 2007-08 recession could be avoided. The housing bubble was going to crash either way because Americans were loaning homes and cold not pay it back.

It did recover in Obama's term by 2011-2012 in OTL.

Do not go that route as i do not think he cared much about politics. He most likely will be like Elton john, a living icon.

I suspect not although if he lives until ~2000 and goes into politics he might have a spell as an MP. Its probably too early for an homosexual to hold the top job in Britain - and I suspect even more so in his native Zanzibar plus he would be rather a strange fit in either Labour or Tory party but could get in as an MP working on his fame and personality plus showing signs of being willing to do a decent job in the role.
