We’re off to a bad start, here, considering that many of the policies the Heritage Foundation has touted throughout Project 2025 would result in economic devastation. I address that every time it comes up under a specific mandate. Second, are they arguing that their particular brand of fascism wouldn’t be “controlling from the top down”? They’re literally arguing for staffing the entire federal government with regime loyalists. It’s throughout this document.
Third, they praise Reagan throughout this document, who gave us trickle-down economics, which not only didn’t work but is the opposite of “letting it flourish from the bottom up.”
Pay attention to their actions, not their words. Their guy (Trump) is the one who killed the bipartisan border control bill, so he could continue to campaign on it as an issue. Obviously, the border can’t be that big of a problem if it can wait to be addressed.
As for economically disengaging from China, as is argued for in the Foreword of Project 2025, the results of that, at this point, are also economic devastation.
