The "leadership" of the GOP just wants power...the rest, is the rest

I was listening to MSNBC this morning and they played a clip of convicted felon Donald Trump trying to distance himself from Project25 (sic) called them far right. He admitted that he knew some of the authors. Good luck with that Donnie.

FAceB fact checkers namely Alex Demas of the Dispatch is saying that most 2025 project does not have to do with the R party . This came from labeling a meme as "mostly false". It seems fb monitors some groups more than others & allows politicians to post false information & flat out lies.

They're counting on no one, especially those on the right, to read any of the 850+ pages.

I've read some of Alex Demas' fact checking. He states that some of the argued points are "partly false" which means, that they are also partly true. "Partly false" is not a good enough standard for Alex Demas to suggest that Project 2025 claims by the left are "mostly false." I have yet to read the full 900+ pages (and most likely will not be able to complete the reading.) I choose to take the advice of folks like Robert Reich, and other left of center commentators regarding this manuscript. I don't see Reich lying about any of this. His credibility is too high.

Maybe so, but just before trump left office, he redesignated job classes which is one of the project 2025 tenets.

his alg has fav'd RW since it was invented as a way to rate women by their "hotness" We all fell for it. Just like we use google search, and forget to turn off the listening bro on our phone, and use google search, and buy from Amazon, and Audible (Amazon) and Whole Foods (Amazon) and store all our lives on the cloud (Amazon and 2 other guys)

How do we right this ship?

Don never knows anyone that he worked with or embraced as soon as he perceives that they cost HIM votes. He tries to walk some weird middle ground and embrace or deny as needed.

He definitely is suffering from sort of cognitive problems. His memory is terrible. He doesn't "know" a lot of people even the ones he appoints to positions.

140 former trump aides contribute to Project 2025. 6 are former members of his cabinet, 4 ambassadors, and people from the RNC who helped appoint. I saw a video of the guy who is doing the hiring. He said that he and trump were just chatting, and trump asks this 28 year old who carries trump's bags around to run this department.

2022 trump quote (sort of) "Our country is going to hell. The critical job of institutions such as the Heridge ( yep) is to lay the groundwork...They're going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do." he then praised several of the leaders.
