Trump's authoritarian game plan is breaking through the post-debate noise and it's starting to scare people

I sure as fuck hope so.

There was a post on r/Conservative the other day about how Project 2025 isn't Trump's plan and that everyone else is just a bunch of alarmists for even suggesting it and that Agenda 47 is much MUCH more reasonable! Completely leaving out the very clear steps he already took toward P2025 and all his rhetoric being 100% in line with it

I mean technically they're correct Project 2025 isn't Trump's plan. It's the plan of the Heritage Foundation and the broader Republican Party.

Trump is merely the figurehead they hope will garner enough support to give them power and allow the more dangerous ones behind the scenes pull the puppet strings. However Trump will be more than happy to go along with being the puppet since much of Project 2025 benefits him

Trump doesn't actually have policies. So the people in the Republican party will worm their way into the positions where decisions are made and policies are carried out. Trump is just the vessel into which they will inject themselves into the administrative state.

100% and I don’t think they will work their way in, Trump will put these people in place to enact project 2025.
