The Rise and Fall of Project 2025

Project 2025 has recently become a prominent topic in political discourse, representing a set of policy proposals shaped by conservative organizations and promoted by the Heritage Foundation. This initiative aimed to create a framework for a future Republican administration, primarily catering to Donald Trump’s supporters by providing training and job opportunities. However, the project faced a significant backlash, culminating in the resignation of its director, which signaled a shift in the Trump campaign's relationship with this initiative. Though initially seen as a unifying blueprint, it has now been perceived as a political liability, leading to a distancing by Trump and his campaign.
