Project 2025, overseen by the Heritage Foundation, includes a sweeping policy agenda that seeks to serve as a blueprint for the next Republican presidential administration.
They still have the fascist scum dude who directly threatened over half of United States citizens with bloodshed if they don't get their fucked up way.
I wonder if they're just stepping down to give the appearance that Project 2025's ideas are dead to try to make Trump appear as less extremist to undecided voters.
This is all just prep for the debate. Trump can now say he disavows project 2025. In reality it changes nothing. The heritage foundation will try to accomplish its goals one way or another.
I'm not saying it's an effective strategy but I do know conservatives like my dad will use this to be in total denial about their intent.
If you want to know my rebuttal, it will be, "if trump has no connection to project 2025 he should drop that ghoul Stephen Miller, a major contributor to project 2025. He wont."
Lol, what is this supposed to change? It's all theater. "Yeah John, just leave and you will make them believe we felt guilty about this entire thing. Everyone loves a redemption arc. Republicans are so retarded they will easily fall for this. Democrats will think they landed a strong hit on us too. Just act like you dropped it and never talk about it ever again, that's it!"
No they are not. They are jumping with a rope attached around their waist. This is PR damage control, make it seem like the head of the project left to make people think and believe they have been torn apart when in reality, they're still working together on it behind our backs.
These people are so deluded that they didn't realize just how unpopular this shit is. Republicans have been coasting for decades by not saying the quiet bit out loud. They've deluded themselves into believing that the majority of their voters actually agree with their insane, horrifying beliefs and plans (or, at the very least, not openly.
They have benefited so long by maintaining a level of plausible deniability that allows them to pretend that they don't actually want this country to be a Christian theocratic fascist nation, they just want to lower your taxes and want smaller government. Really.
It's interesting to see that this where the line is... Or maybe it's just that people finally started paying attention?
