Summary

Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.

Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP’s commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.

    Oh no, I’m sure you’re a libertarian.

    I just don’t buy the left-leaning part considering Oliver’s platform.

      Okay that’s your opinion then. Doesn’t mean I ageee with all of his policies. Shit, people literally voted for Trump because they say TRUMP=lower prices HARISS=Higher prices. And ignored everything else. I’m upset as well that Trump is back The White House. If anything Dems should be mad at Joe Biden for not deciding not to run for reelection before the primaries.

        So your defense of being left-leaning is that people voted for politicians for stupider reasons than why you would have preferred Chase Oliver?
