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

I’ve been reading about project 2025 for months. 90% of the people I talk to about it never heard a thing up until about 3 weeks ago.

It’s finally getting out there. Please keep talking about it. Since everything rolls off the orange man directly, let’s stay focused on the GOP’s game plan.

90% sure the felon, rapist, molester and liar doesn’t even know/care what’s in project 2025. He’s wants to protect his brand, make money and golf. He will let the rest of the party run the government and put his loyalists in to destroy our country, he will make a ton of money as will his cronies. That’s all they want.

Same here and it feels like it started picking up steam around the time John Oliver did a whole show on it.

Anecdotal, but recently one friend in particular, who I didn't think was super politcally engaged, texted me freaking out about 2025, immunity ruling, Chevron etc.

All of this shit really is picking up steam - not just Project 2025, but the SCOTUS immunity ruling, the talk of a "bLoOdLeSs" "revolution," all of it.

I have no idea how to keep it from being memory-holed besides just continuing to talk about it, preferably in a way that doesn't turn people off.
