I have to say I am still kind of confused and positively surprised that “Project 2025” got so swiftly and universally condemned.
The right wing is usually better at pushing their noxious policy agenda. Just check what the actual state and national GOP policy positions say, yet they don’t get this kind of scrutiny and are not taken seriously.
My guess is that Heritage Foundation didn’t prepare the ground and didn’t have readymade slick explainers for journalists beforehand, making journalists having to go and read the actual source material by themselves, untutored. I’m sure they won’t make the same mistake again.
@sjuvonen Well, unlike, say, PNAC, they neglected to engineer a dramatic world-changing event which would grant unprecedented powers, cow and silence dissenters, and shift opinion broadly in their direction. #YeahImACrazedTrutherWhatOfIt
