Trump is now trying to distance himself from Project 2025. Gonna be hard though. The project's director is Paul Dans, who served as chief of staff at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management under Trump. Trump's campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt was featured in one of Project 2025's videos.
From BBC: Over more than 900 pages, Project 2025 calls for sacking thousands of civil servants, expanding the power of the president, dismantling the Department of Education and other federal agencies..
sacking thousands of civil servants: From Donald Trump's official website: He intends to re-issue 2020 executive order restoring the president’s authority to fire rogue bureaucrats. This was his Schedule F plan which made it simple to fire federal employees. His plan is to fire thousands of these 'rogue bureaucrats' that don't agree with him.
expanding the power of the president: I think the SC handled that quite well for him. He's now immune from any official action he might take as president (with the court not even indicating what official actions might be). And further insulated by a presumptive immunity for any other actions. In all cases the SC court gets to decide immunity on a case by case basis. This ruling basically makes the president a king. Lets not forget that Trump placed 3 of those justices on the SC. All 3 of which were pushed by the Heritage foundation. Just for context, Project 2025 was authored by Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation.
dismantling the department of education and other federal agencies: From The Guardian. Donald Trump wants to shut down the US Department of Education, saying at recent rallies that it should be disbanded to “move everything back to the states where it belongs”
So as we continue on to the Nov election, Trump will try to further distance himself from Project 2025. I intend to write more of these little pieces directly attaching him to that project (because there's way more than just the 3 covered here). Just so the orange POS can't lie his way out of it. :-)
