Project 2025, a conservative plan encompassing restoring the family, dismantling government agencies, and enhancing individual rights, could pave the way for an autocratic theocracy under Trump. Democrats are mobilizing to educate voters on the extremist policies proposed by Trump and Republicans. If Trump secures a second term, the fear lies in eroding institutions, dismantling social structures, and consolidating power without checks.
