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.

    No they won’t they’ll implement 50 - 75 percent of it. Ditching what’s not popular enough or appealing enough to business men and their popular base.

      Oh, well no problem then. I’m not sure why everyone is worried when it’s only 25-50% of fascist policies that will be implemented.

        Yeah, that said - I don’t think he’s a fascist yet. I think he’s an extreme Capitalist with a narcissistic personality.

        He likes to joke, play, and dance with violent rhetoric to get views and likes. He goads the left into giving him attention, and his supporters find it funny.

        So I think he’ll be a more run of the mill candidate than most on the left are claiming. This is because American democracy is already corrupt, already serves mostly the wealthy and bigotted, at the cost of the stupid, poor, vulnerable, and ignorant.

        So he won’t be a noteworthy fascist unless there’s a government action results in a mass violence, OR he refuses to leave office.
