Nobody knows or cares what it is except the couple of weirdos who wrote it in a basement and people who spend too much time watching certain partisan news TV shows.


Those "couple of weirdos" are Trump's former transition team members, cabinet officials, and leadership of federal government agencies Trump appointed.

If the people writing it are weirdos, well, I guess it would be a big werido who would appoint them to positions of power. Maybe we shouldn't elect someone who would appoint such people to power if these ideas are so distasteful.

And the people who know about are too hooked on partisan TV? Well, Trump certainly knows about them and the work they do. But I do agree he's probably too habitually glued to partisan cable news so much he's spewing weirdo falsehoods at debates.

We should really be questioning Trump's mental acuity when he repeatedly says he doesn't know who Ben Carson or Peter Navarro or Kevin Robers is. He doesn't remember the person he campaigned against eight years ago, the guy he hired to head Housing and Urban Development? He doesn't remember the guy who worked in the Whitehouse for four years closely with him? He doesn't remember the person he's praised many times in the past couple of years?

And yeah, I do agree a lot of people don't really know about Project 2025. It's incredible to me so many people are voting for a party in which they don't know most of the real policy positions of its highest members and thought leaders. If you think the Heritage Foundation has little to no influence in the direction of GOP policy, you haven't been paying attention to the last 40 years.
