Summary
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.
Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.
Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP’s commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.
I didn’t see this in the other replies: they genuinely don’t believe in government.
Yarvin, Thiel, Musk, Trump all believe the country is best run as a business. By which they mean they can fire you from the country and you have to leave if they don’t like you. It also means that if you make a bad decision and destroy the country because you want to you should be allowed to. However they also believe that because they are rich and powerful it stands to reason, ipso facto, that they got there because they are good at their jobs, therefore it follows any decisions they make are good decisions and thus are the right ones. Those who disagree or would have made different decisions are wrong and bad at their jobs because they are not the president and the president is correct because he’s the president.
