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.

It had a 4!!!!! Percent approval rating. 4!!

And yet.. he won the popular vote.

I'm an American in a poor red state. I really hope the FO portion of fafo hits us SUPER hard.

It'll suck for me.. but man it'll be great to be that smug asshole reminding folks who they voted for.

In my county 23% voted Harris. So odds are good that dude in the lifted Ford is a trumpkin.

Fucking idiots....

Same, red county-district-state. I would hope the same but they won't attribute it to their dear* leader. His Tariffs and GOP policy will fuck them too, but fox and podcasts will tell them it's the deep state Democrats keeping them down. They all were doing the "this is Biden's America" posts in 2020. GOP can do no wrong in their eyes. Used to be child rape was a deal breaker but even that is A-OK now, as long as the Democrats lose.
