Punished for saying the quiet part waaaayyyy too loudly.
It caused quite the Führer.
- No no, let him cook
They're only making it quiet; the part that is going to place tens of thousands of people invested in the project into government if Trump is elected is still happening:
Another arm of the project, a personnel database of more than 20,000 applicants for potential political appointments should Trump be reelected, will remain in operation, people familiar with the matter said.
Project 2025 only goes away when Republicans stop steamrolling local elections for powerful positions. You can't just vote in the presidential election.
Is that the one Meta just hired?
- No, the one Meta hired just wrote the cybersecurity sections.
  
  wrote the cybersecurity sections.
  Oh what?? What kind of crap did they write for cybersecurity??
But but trump didnt know anything about P2025, why would he influence them????
In no place does Trump ever specify which ideas he disagrees with. He just doesn't want to be associated with it. He is not really disavowing the ideas, AFAICT. It kind of makes me mad that it is being reported that he is distancing himself from P2025. Because... not really.
Yet project 2025 still exists.
Hmmm.
Good riddance.
