My niche would be condensed matter physics but particularly in the area of atomic scale imaging. I’m just scrambling to apply to any rolling admissions schools right now after I got rejected from all of my PhD applications. I just did not plan this far ahead and I want to go back to school so bad. Is it even a good idea to apply for higher education now under trump’s presidency? Do I just get a job and wait it out? I’m under a lot of panic right now 🙁

If you’re in the US you don’t need an MS to get into most PhD programs. You’re basically taking on debt for nothing if you get one now.
Rather, take this year to work (in the field if you can) and improve any test scores (GRE).
