From the July 25, 2025, edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends.

BRIAN KILMEADE (CO-HOST): They keep on tying you, whether it's yesterday's testimony, when they were talking to Christopher Wray or whether it's Kamala Harris on the stump, they keep on tying to you Project 2025, which is a 900-page tome put out by the Heritage Foundation. What is your response to what is in it and what would you like to say about the role it's playing in your campaign? 

DONALD TRUMP: It's a group of very, very conservative people. They wrote a document that many of the points are fine, many of the points are absolutely ridiculous. I have nothing to do with the document. I have never seen the document. I have seen certain things that are said in it. And it's a group of very conservative people that probably like me but it doesn't matter because it doesn't speak for me. They wrote something that I disagree with in many cases and some cases you agree. But, it's like a group of radical left people that write something and, you know, people get angry by it. This is a document I know nothing about. It's called Project 25. I heard about it a week ago. And has nothing to do with me whatsoever. But, of course, our friends that are Democrats, radical left Democrats they take the document, which is, I guess, pretty big, and thorough, and they scour through it and anything that's bad in there or that's a little bit less than mainstream, they take it and they make a big deal out of it. Donald Trump and Project 25, are you ready? I know nothing about Project 25. I haven't seen the document. I don't intend to really see the document. And it's a group of people that got together that wrote some kind of a dream document for them. But it has absolutely nothing to do with me and it's just disinformation, Brian, by the Democrats. Pure disinformation.
