What is Project 2025 and how is Trump connected to it?

In recent weeks, President Biden and other Democrats have been sounding the alarm on the potential dangers posed by a second Trump term by dropping the name "Project 2025." Two weeks ago, the Biden campaign even launched a website that outlines how the conservative plan would allegedly reshape the U.S. CBS News campaign reporter Jake Rosen breaks down the proposal.

[robinsheffield]

What is happening or maybe not happening right now for the American 🇺🇸 people. The price of groceries, buying a home, home owners insurance, health insurance, car insurance, astronomical rent, our public school system, repossessions of cars, home foreclosures, and the millions upon millions of people living in the streets and/or living paycheck to paycheck. Let’s have a discussion of the devastating project of the last four years and how it has decreased the quality of our lives.

[joannanderson]

So the reporter isn't gonna mention project 25 mentions Donald Trump over 200 times. And how he never mentions a policy because project 25 is his policies. This is total BS.

[mauricehikes]

Maybe the worst description ever of 900 pages…who is the author of Project 2025. Don’t forget dismantling of government agencies. How did you miss that?

[doughughes]

Trump cannot get the overwhelming stench of Project 2025 off from him.

[singlebachelor]

Clutching at all straws. Russia, Russia, Russia. Enough please.

CLIMATE
PO25 proposes slashing federal money for research and investment in renewable energy, and calls for the next president to "stop the war on oil and natural gas".

Carbon-reduction goals would be replaced by efforts to increase energy production and energy security.

The paper sets out two competing visions on tariffs, and is divided on whether the next president should try to boost free trade or raise barriers to imports.

But the economic advisers suggest that a second Trump administration should slash corporate and income taxes, abolish the Federal Reserve and even consider a return to gold-backed currency.

On this and many other topics, Project 2025 is more detailed and goes further than the official Republican platform, which talks of bringing down inflation and drilling for oil to reduce energy costs, but is thin on specific policy proposals.

This is a question for MAGA:
Which parts of Project 2025 do you support?

[Sampsel]

It would be almost impossible to implement like 95% of project 2025 anyway, you'd need a large majority in both the senate and house

[drewncarolina]

Trump is already working these policy proposals into his speeches

Abortion and family

PO25 does not call outright for a nationwide abortion ban.

However, it proposes withdrawing the abortion pill mifepristone from the market, and using existing but little-enforced laws to stop the drug being sent through the post.

The document suggests that the department of Health and Human Services should "maintain a biblically based, social science-reinforced definition of marriage and family".

On this issue at least, the document differs fairly substantially from the Republican platform, which only mentions the word "abortion" once. The platform says abortion laws should be left to individual states and that late-term abortions (which it does not define) should be banned.

It adds that that access to prenatal care, birth control and in-vitro fertilisation should be protected. The party platform makes no mention of cracking down on the distribution of mifepristone.

A. It is a rather common sense approach to fixing our government. . .
B. Trump has nothing to do with it. . .
