Summary

Donald Trump, once critical of Project 2025—a conservative policy agenda led by the Heritage Foundation—has softened his stance, calling parts of it “very conservative and very good.”

Despite distancing himself from the 900-page plan during his campaign, Trump has nominated key contributors to his second administration, including Russ Vought and Brendan Carr.

Critics claim this signals alignment with the project’s goals, which include expanding executive power and limiting civil service protections.

Trump denies full involvement, while Democrats and watchdog groups argue the initiative reflects his broader conservative agenda.

    I read Agenda 47 (his official platform) and tbh it didnt sound too different from Project 2025. This should come as a shock to absolutely nobody with at least half a braincell. Lets hope that this horror show ends in four years because if it doesn’t then we can prepare for hell.

      Yeah I remember before he was saying the total equivalent of “Project2025 is just a coffee boy, nothing to do with me.”

      Now, which anyone absolutely could have predicted: “Oh, but how convenient it is to have a database of stooges who were vetted to suck up to me! Might as well use it!”

      Media sane-washed the fuck out of Project2025 which everyone with two braincells unwashed by propaganda to put together, knew this was the plan all along.

        We have a concept of a plan… anyone not thinking he was talking about project 2025 was a fucking idiot.

        The greatest theft is that we all collectively are being forced to burn significant amounts of our lives thinking about this man-child’s thoughts and actions. We both spend the time poorly and lose the ability to do something productive instead.

        Hundreds of millions of human-hours, every single day, wasted. It’s not crazy to infer this one person is disabling a significant part of human progress.

      I’d make a pilgrimage to piss on his grave, but it will probably be in Florida, and nothing could get me to set foot in that state!

    Versions of P2025 have been around for decades while Democrats did nothing to try and counter the proposals, and in many cases fully supported HF written legislation.

      It’s all the Democrats fault that Republicans are doing this. Fuck off

      For fuck’s sake, doesn’t it ever get tiring trying to blame absolutely everything on the Democrats?

          They spent billions of dollars trying to convince voters not to vote for the guy who would enact it. All the people had to do was vote, and they wouldn’t do it. This is not on them, it’s on America.

            They spent billions of dollars on consultants and celebrities. Their own advisors admitted that none of their internal polling ever showed that Harris or Biden would have ever won. It was a fundraising con job. Versions of P2025 have been around for decades. It started off with Contract with America, and Democrats have done nothing to counter any of the legislation coming from the Heritage Foundation, and oftentimes voted in favor of it.

            They recently voted unanimously on Heritage Foundation legislation called KOSA. Democrats are not the protectors of democracy. They are complicit in the right wing fascism that Republicans enact.
