The former president effectively ābirthedā the project. Now that itās a political liability, one of Trumpās foot soldiers is out of a job
As he enteredĀ the final stretch of theĀ 2024 presidential race,Ā Donald Trump spent much of this month trying to disown the highly Trumpy,Ā Heritage Foundation-ledĀ Project 2025Ā ā to the point that he even got his fansĀ to booĀ the initiative during a recent campaign rally. His protracted freakout over the conservative project ā to which he has multiple direct ties, and which is only as extreme as it is largelyĀ becauseĀ of his influence ā is driven almost entirely by Trumpās fear over one thing.
When the twice-impeached ex-president and convicted felon took to social media in early July to make the (patently absurd) claim that āI know nothing aboutĀ Project 2025, [and] I have no idea who is behind it,ā he added, āI disagree with some of the things theyāre saying, and some of the things theyāre saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal.ā He did not specify what āthingsā he meant.
the fact that he didnāt have a single negative thing to say about it until people started calling him out on it says everything. the whole āi donāt know anything about itā defense is complete fucking horseshit
I mean in the case of Trump itās not actually far fetched. He is a useful idiot to the people with an agenda. Not to cut him any slack, just pointing out that he is a buffoon chasing approval, he thought he would get it for P2025 but now that there is blowback heās legitimately like āI didnāt read it, I donāt read anything.ā
