Project 2025, organized by the Heritage Foundation, extensively outlines potential approaches to governance for the next would-be Republican president, including replacing federal employees with extremists and Trump loyalists and attacking LGBTQ rights, abortion, contraception, and labor unions. Project 2025 describes extreme policies like dismantling the federal agency that tracks hurricanes, upending Medicare as we know it, enacting inflationary tariff policies, and dramatically raising taxes on everyday Americans.
Trump has deep ties to Project 2025, despite attempts by Trump and his allies to distance himself. Just days ago, an undercover video revealed Project 2025 architect Russ Vought highlighting Trump's ties to Project 2025 and downplaying the former president distancing himself, candidly explaining that Trump is just “running against the brand” of Project 2025 but that, “he’s very supportive of what we do.” Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts has made similar remarks.
