Beyond the energy at the Democratic National Convention, beyond its all-important TV ratings and the clear affection Democrats feel toward their presidential ticket, it seems that the one thing really getting under Donald Trump’s skin is Democrats tying him to Project 2025.
“They know I have nothing to do with it,” Trump said on “Fox & Friends” Thursday, regarding the Heritage Foundation’s authoritarian agenda for a potential second Trump presidency.
“A group of people got together,” he continued. “They drew up some conservative values, very conservative values, and in some case, perhaps they went over the line. Perhaps they didn’t. I have no idea what Project 25 is, but they use it, and they know it.”
And there’s a good reason he’s afraid for people to connect him to Project 2025. As Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said at the DNC on Wednesday, Trump's campaign "might not recover from" from the public attention given Project 2025.
