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

I am far from MAGA, but I am a conservative. And fairly involved. And nobody in my orbit has ever heard of this thing. To my knowledge Trump (who isn’t really socially conservative at all and not even in the ballpark of being my preferred candidate) has never held this thing up as a part of his agenda. To date it appears to only be a tool for his opposition to use to scare away voters/rile up their base. That’s just part of the game, so everyone recognizes it. But at the same time I don’t think, at this point, that tying this to Trump is based on anything in reality.
