Summary
Despite disavowing Project 2025 during the campaign, Trump’s transition team is now using its extensive database of vetted conservative candidates to help fill over 4,000 government positions.
Project 2025, criticized for its extreme policy proposals and links to Trump’s first administration, created a “conservative LinkedIn” of 10,000 candidates.
While some contributors are being tapped for key roles, others face rejection due to controversial stances.
Democrats, who used Project 2025 in campaign attacks, are warning of its influence on Trump’s agenda and planning policy responses.
Project 2025 is and has always been a right wing conservative wishlist the GOP has maintained since forever.
The idea the conservatives were ever disavowing conservatism was laughably stupid.
Project 2025 was considered unique in detailing how to get rid of checks and balances, ergo terminate democracy.
Heritage Foundation has been working on that since the 1970s, but yeah, it is the most updated and calibrated plan of action.
