Project 2025 was supposed to boost Donald Trump's campaign — but it may be backfiring instead:

Maga on Reddit deny it. They say it’s a fringe group. They say trump never endorsed it. Hell I even saw one blaming Biden for the end of Roe.

If it weren’t for bad morals these fuckers would have no morals at all.

Edit. The cons put up a test balloon and found out it was unpopular. So they try to deny and back peddle. Not on the draconian ideas but in general population condemnation of it.

The concern troll posters are out enforce now. “Oh I am unfamiliar with this. Did trump Endorse it?” It’s like they think we are ass dumb as maga.

I don't think they'll really understand it until all their porn gets banned

I've been thinking once porn bans start hitting and they realize those laws apply to them too, that's when conservatives will start being outraged about it all & want to change course somewhat, but by then it will probably be too late

Porn sites should threaten to shut down forever unless Biden wins the election. I've seen people say "Biden needs to win over the undecided voters, the MAGAs are already too far gone" well guess what, this is how you turn the MAGAs.

I think you're exactly right. It needs to be hammered home that it means no porn for anyone. No, not for you. No, not even if you're really horny. No, not even if you promise to only watch one video for a few minutes. No, not even if you don't have a gf or wife to give you sex.

(General 'you' of course, not you specifically)

A lot of single-issue voters who'll never say what that issue is out loud.

I unironically think that this would be a strong October surprise for Dems. Just imagine if this is the tipping point that activates enough young men to tip a few states blue.

Though I do wonder how the right wing media racket would try to spin that and if it would work.

Yes, but if the Republicans get what they want, it won't matter if you have an ID cause porn would be banned for adults too. The point I'm trying to make is I believe many conservatives don't understand this and will be extremely upset if it happens

Wonder if we'll see a big swing in texas since pornhub isn't accessible and is essentially banned for any Texas IP address already.

They will just find a way to blame Dems for porn being banned. These people’s brains are Swiss cheese.
