Slightly off topic, but I worry that this election has, amongst other things has turned into a referendum on Project 2025. So, the Democratic Party won’t have a leg to stand on when it gets implemented in full. They can’t really argue that the electorate was ignorant.
Republicans are claiming to voters that they “don’t know anything about projects 2025”. Despite supporting all the policies individually. There’s still plenty of room to argue the electorate was duped by their lies should they win
Maybe, but it’s like the Brexit referendum. During the run up to the vote, the rightwing government at the time swore that it wasn’t binding, instead it was advisory. But, when the opportunity to vote again when it actually became clear what the Brexit deal meant, it was dismissed. We had our vote. Even though there was no way of knowing that people actually voted for the form Brexit they actually got. Instead those that advocate for a final binding vote was castigated for being anti Democratic with vested interests and hidden agendas.
If they can do that to Brexit skeptics with all the uncertainty and doubt surrounding that decision, imagine what they can do surrounding a much more cut and dried prospect of Project 2025.
I should imagine the line will be: “you, yourself advertised what Project 2025 will be. You said if you vote us in, we’ll implement it. Now we’re in, we see that as a democratic mandate to implement it”.
Maybe, and while a fair amount of Trump supporters do agree with Project 2025, I bet an equally fair amount of them believe him when he claims he doesn’t know anything about it. Another large share knows it, but thinks the worst parts won’t happen or at least won’t effect them.
I have family that have been straight ticket Republicans their whole lives and voted for Trump. After Roe fell, they claimed they had no idea that would happen. They said Republicans had been saying they would ban abortion for years, and never thought they’d actually do it. They’ll take the easy way out and ignore Project 2025 the same way until it happens.

I wonder how many are causally gambling on Americans’ freedom every 4 years?
“Certainly the institutions and norms that we’ve been undermining for decades will prevent anything bad happening.”
Good on them, but man, how did this not happen earlier? Seems like something that you could just spend a moderate amount of campaign funds on. There was a good wave of Project 2025 awareness going around social media a month or so ago. It’s so late to do it now.
They did start it earlier. It’s talking about work that’s been ongoing
Fuck the libre initiative btw
