On Thursday, Donald Trump sent out a Truth Social post glorifying Russ Vought, the famous creator of Project 2025, and said he will use his ideas to lay off many Democrat Agencies during the government shutdown.
During the 2024 election, Donald Trump repeatedly claimed in the media, rallies, and in the presidential debate that he did not know about Project 2025, considered it to be from the radical right, and that he wanted nothing to do with it.
TRUMP: I'm not an extremist at all. Like, some on the right, severe right, came up with this Project 25, and I don't even know. I mean, some of them, I know who they are. But they're very, very conservative, just like you have. They're sort of the opposite of the radical left, okay? You have the radical left, and you have the radical right.
