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.
I really hope they keep on the project 2025 attacks, because you can easily tie so many of those heritage foundation pricks directly to trump and his previous administration. He can say all he wants that he isnāt associated with them and wont let them near the whitehouse, but heād have to have an entire new group of advisors to be able to do that.
