Trump World ‘panicking’ as Project 2025 gets on the radar of voters
“Trump does not want people to know about the entire vanguard of extremist weirdos around him—and what their plans are when he governs,” says Chris Hayes on voters finding out about the far-right agenda that is Project 2025.

How is continue to pack the supreme court "happening rn"? I wish Biden was doing that but...
I've said it many times, I wish the boogeyman Democratic party that exists in Republicans' fevered imaginations was real. They get shit done.
Assuming the poster meant "Get SCOTUS to engage in our fuckery"
Meaning federalist society continue to pack in next republican term... They are at least kavanaugh, gorsuch and barret - and leonard leo facilitates thomas's date night weekend getaways +++ with the billionaire oligarch.
I’ve been skimming through the listed page numbers so maybe I missed it but where in pg 545-581 does it talk about “[ending] marriage equality”? That whole section seems to be talking about the FBI and DOJ
What the fuck, people are JUST NOW hearing about this??
You'd be surprised at just how little the average voter knows about politics. There's a reason a lot of people wish politics would go back to being boring and not something everyone talked about.
Indeed. Pretty much everyone I know over the age of 50 gets all of their news from Fox/CNN and maybe facebook. They're oblivious and make up the majority of the people that actually go and vote.
Never underestimate how uninformed people are.
Plenty of them are informed, and DGAF.
Tribalism and decades right wing propaganda mean that they'll vote for anyone on the GOP ticket, even when they are clearly terrible and debatably conservative.
I was so naive so as to think there was no way we’d elect Trump.
Now I just assume we’ll do the dumbest thing on offer.
Trump got too many votes in 2016, and even more than that in 2020, and you're surprised at how uninformed American voters are?
Our press is too busy with far more important issues than Trump's advisors plotting a fascist takeover of the country. You know, like Biden being old.
Please, weaponize this! I know the last place you want to go is a Fox News comment section or FB posts but these people need to see how they will be personally affected too.
Weaponize the cuts to social security and medicare as much as you can. Yes, lots of conservatives are a lot cause. But I'm not asking you to reach them on the moral issues, I'm asking to get them rightfully scared of losing social security and medicare/medicaid. Make it personal.
They also need to know they don’t need to vote for anyone. It’s perfectly valid to leave the space blank if they are not comfortable voting for Biden.
The option exists to not vote straight R, and no one will ever know. They can vote Biden and vote R for everything else, and still pretend they voted for Trump.
my job has me on i40 in Tennessee a good bit and there was a huge mega porn store off one of the exits
it has been shut down and reopened as a Mega MAGA Store
trump beat titties official the country is fucked
I think that store shut down because of a thing called the Internet
"trump world" sounds like the most disappointing and predatory theme park ever.

If you are not rich, you may donate ($) to those more fortunate than you until God decides to make you rich!

Bush Gardens was/is awesome, how dare you 😂
For Drumpf, it’s more of a sequel to Action Park (NJ)

Not at all (as long as you're rich enough to bribe him and get served by his capers).
Project 2025 has been around for years. How have people not noticed it?
Because on its surface it sounds like something the magas would make up.
It is something they made up. That's what plans are.
The news refused to cover it until people made it a big deal online.
It's how it always works.
BS. This is exactly what Rump world wants. They love consolidation of power, Christian nationalism, and taking power away from non-white men. They are worried that centrist and moderate red voters will hear about it.
"BS" then goes to repeat what the headline says.
It's the finer points, like SS and Medicaid that they would worry about. People care when it hits their wallet in a way that isn't hidden behind taxes.
I mean, whatever gets the low information voters' attentions.
I'm sure they also love the part where social services are cut and retirement age increased!
That's the kind of shit that will make someone rethink their choices.
If he is elected, they won’t keep trying to pretend that they are against these positions.
Sadly my Right Wing friends insist it's "Just the Heritage Foundation" and that the "REAL" GOP already rejects it
So naive...
No conservative voter thinks poorly of Project 2025. Every conservative in the U.S. is either fine with it or excited about it.
A conservative who pretends it's not their platform is lying, either to placate you or to save face.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation, even when those words come from friends or family.
Actually Trump is shitting himself over Project 25 because Moderate Republicans don't wanna give up their porn and condoms.
Right Wing
friends
There's a tough one right there.
I heard an NPR listening, CNN watching person tell me yesterday that the Heritage Foundation was conservative extremists and not to take them seriously.
I wouldn't... if they weren't the ones writing policy
They were proud of it up until not long ago, trusting to the ignorance of the "average American" about policy details. Then the Supreme Court ruling came.
My family is pretty politically aware and my brother only just started talking about it, so it will take a bit for word to spread.
The thing that pisses me off the most about Project 2025 is that there's no Project 2029 from the left.
Why would the left wait until 2029?
The left shouldn't wait. It should have started years ago.
Project 2025 didn't start yesterday. https://web.archive.org/web/20230920110555/https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/20/us/politics/republican-president-2024-heritage-foundation.html
It didn't even start in 2023. That's the culmination of years of planning.

Even the right wingers are pretending like it's nothing.
Not even arguing
What a bunch of idiots. A group funded by their politicians that frequently provides them with "model" legislation now has a manifesto regarding how to overthrow democracy and we're supposed to believe it's no big deal.
Fascists know what they're doing when they gaslight you.
Of course they think Doogie Howser is the good guy in that scene.
Just learning what this is - and it honestly sets off my BS detector.
Seems like a great way to other people who support any kind if conservative position.
Not American though, so it’s hard to even tell if shit like this is real from the outside…
Our conservatives aren't like conservatives elsewhere in the world. Our liberals are like your conservatives, policy wise.
Our conservatives are brainwashed by four decades of targeted conservative media that's explicitly designed to keep them in an anger loop in order to create a political climate where republicans (who are the actual politicians) don't have to appeal to the conservative base with actual policy.
Republicans, through channels like Fox News and OANN (seriously, go watch some of it and see what we're dealing with here) have demonized everyone to the left of them so hard that entire generations of conservatives genuinely believe that there's a bloody revolution coming.
It would be nice if it were actually bullshit, but these lunatics who make up half of our voting population put a con-man entertainer with zero political experience in the whitehouse for four years and installed conservative justices to our highest court who are systematically dismantling our democracy.
It's very real. It's so real that some of the less insane conservatives are waking up to how dangerous the details of this plan actually are, and that's why Republicans are panicking about this.
The Heritage Foundation is wild, and one of the most significant public policy groups with deep ties to American conservatism. Basically, any crazy policy that the Republican party has taken on as a major party plank in the past 50 years has a distressing high chance of having its roots in Heritage's recommendations.
For example, in 1981:
Among the 2,000 Heritage policy recommendations, approximately 60% of them were implemented or initiated by the end of Reagan's first year in office.
Just wow 😳
It's real.
It's real
Nice website, bro:
Oof, gotem
