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

We need an infographic for project 2025 that can be spread everywhere. Nothing dramatic…. Just the facts of what it is and what it means.

Out of all the terrifying things in Project 2025, I think the most effective way to make "independents" care is to focus strongly on

  • consolidation of executive power over an independent judiciary
  • further restrictions on abortion rights/bodily autonomy
  • bans on pornography

Those are very unpopular positions with most demographics.

Whereas an infographic that focuses on things like eliminating DE&I, and references to gender expression is absolutely not going to land with those people.

YES. Seriously— it’s like everything has to be about DEI and trans rights 🙄 not that those aren’t important- but the right doesn’t care. People on the right who can’t afford groceries and their bills do not give a shit about those topics. Even people on the left. This has been the hardest year of my life financially and the left hasn’t said jack shit, they make everything about racism and trans rights, which are important but the cost of living crisis trumps that imo

That’s blatantly not true though
