Wait, I thought he had “nothing to do with Project 2025.” How do you force out the leader of something you’re not involved with?

I'm starting to think Trump lied to us.

I dare you to prove more than 400 times that he has done this.

If it's not in the last 3 seconds, it doesn't count unfortunately

[–] agamemnonymous 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oof. Alright, gimme some time to find the right 3 seconds and do a total breakdown. I'm pretty sure it's possible, but it could take a while.

I believe in you

It’s a con.

They “eject” the “frontman,” then claim Proj. 25 is “less of a threat,” save some face to secure moderates’ votes, and then if they win the election they implement proj. 25 anyway, without any changes.

Also, by kicking him out and then implementing it anyway, they take credit for his work. I wonder whether being discarded like a piece of trash the moment he outlived his usefulness came as a surprise to him. A very Trumpian move all-around.

Fall guy. Don't fall for this bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Yup, hell get a cushy job somewhere.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago

Got rid of the frontman but aren't changing any of their plans.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

So if he knows nothing about P25, how does he have the authority over its commission to remove someone?

Antisemetic leopard felon eats another face. Film at 11.

He must be one of the good ones if he speaks perfect stupid.

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

Now that's it's written he needs to eliminate anyone who can claim authorship. This is so he can use it as a playbook while not appearing to give the plan credence.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

He has probably already concinced himself it was his idea all along.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

He didn't force it out, he made them just shut up for a few minutes

Fuck all of 'em
