Project 2025 is a 900-page document spelling out a functional takeover of the American government. There is nothing remotely “conservative” about it. Conservative means to retain what is and make minimal changes.
Project 2025, however, is a radically reactionary plan spelled out in micromanaged detail, placing 20,000 Trump loyalists in control of governance. The vast majority of the developers of this plan were former Trump administration staff.
JD Vance was chosen as vice-presidential nominee to be the enforcer of Project 2025 in a second Trump term. The need for Vance in the administration becomes clear when we look at Trump’s weakening mind. Here is Trump’s response to a question on religion in an interview in early June:
“Religion is such a great thing. It’s so it keeps, you know, there’s something to be good about, you want to be good, you wanna, it’s so important, I don’t know if it’s explained right, I don’t know if I’m explaining it right. You know you want to be good, you want to go to heaven, OK, so you want to go to heaven, so if we don’t have heaven, OK, you almost say what’s the reason, why do I have to be good, what difference does it make?”
Is this the person you want to be president so he can institute a massive overhaul of our constitutional rights and liberties and replace them with lock-step adherence to far right ideological purity? We’ve seen how that played out in the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, and Mussolini’s Italy. Inform yourself. The non-partisan ACLU has developed a concise summary of Project 2025.
