one does not simply write a 900 pages plan for sport

Right?

Like, even if Trump doesn't win you can bet your ass a lot of conservatives are on board and pushing the agenda

[–] [email protected] 47 points 4 months ago (3 children)

If Trump doesn't win, it'll just become Project 2029.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago

Oh yeah that too, but what I specifically meant was that there's a lot of conservative lawmakers who'll be pushing policy points from the "manual" before that – they'll probably largely agree with a lot of the goals set out in it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I wonder how long we have left with Trump, though. I mean, the dude's pushing 80 and already pretty senile.

[–] Voroxpete 23 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Trump didn't write Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation did. This is the agenda of the Republican party, not any one figurehead.

In 2029 it will be Dementia Don: Full Dementia

Likely they'll have DeSantis running in his place instead by then...

Nah twinkletoes boots McGee was burnt, he's toast.

Isn't that what 2025 is? A plan for if Trump doesn't win.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Nah it's a plan specifically for the president since it also includes things that only he could do, but there's a lot of it that is just legislation

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No, it's a plan for how to quickly replace career administrators to pack the government with loyalists, cripple education and sprinkle in indoctrination, reverse key rights for women, and just generally subvert democracy to keep conservatives in power even though the population is interestingly progressive

It's written for a president to put into place in their first year, hence "2025" when the next president will be sworn in

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Thanks, I hadn't been following it closely. Political news has been too depressing lately.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I've spent three years writing a fantasy campaign setting. The result is about 30-40 pages long so far.

900 pages is insane

[–] Voroxpete 27 points 4 months ago

900 pages is a suitable length for a large scale overarching policy agenda. It's clear that they put a lot of thought into every detail of this.

The content of that 900 pages, now that's insane. It's literally a blueprint for a fascist Christian theocracy.
