"I have no idea who is behind it," the former president recently claimed on social media.

In fact, at least 140 people who worked in the Trump administration had a hand in Project 2025, a CNN review found, including more than half of the people listed as authors, editors and contributors to "Mandate for Leadership," the project's extensive manifesto for overhauling the executive branch.

"Many people Trump knows quite well are behind it.

Six of his former Cabinet secretaries helped write or collaborated on the 900-page playbook for a second Trump term published by the Heritage Foundation.

Four individuals Trump nominated as ambassadors were also involved, along with several enforcers of his controversial immigration crackdown. And about 20 pages are credited to his first deputy chief of staff.

Dozens more who staffed Trump's government hold positions with conservative groups advising Project 2025, including his former chief of staff Mark Meadows and longtime adviser Stephen Miller.

These groups also include several lawyers deeply involved in Trump's attempts to remain in power, such as his impeachment attorney Jay Sekulow and two of the legal architects of his failed bid to overturn the 2020 presidential election, Cleta Mitchell and John Eastman."

It's almost like he's a pathological liar, along with being a criminal, a traitor, and a Dark Triad personality.

"Democrats tying Project 2025 to Donald Trump continues to get under his skin:

Trump took to Truth Social late Wednesday night to try to distance himself from the radical agenda, posting after midnight,

"I know nothing about Project 2025. I have not seen it, have no idea who is in charge of it, and unlike our very well received Republican Platform, had nothing to do with it."

"The Radical Left Democrats are having a field day, however, trying to hook me into whatever policies are stated or said. It is pure disinformation on their part. By now, after all of these years, everyone knows where I stand on EVERYTHING! DJT," he added."

The problem is that you have to FIRST get folks who either loosely support Trump or on the fence with to be afraid of Project 2025.

At this point......they aren't. So they'll accept Trump's word he has nothing to do with it because they aren't afraid of it anyway. It's a non issue for them.

make it an issue for them......

Maybe a better message than "Project 2025.....I haven't read it but it sure sounds scary....."

not really very convincing.

I see Truth has jumped on the new hoax.

Remember not too long ago there were "cheap fakes", "fine people" etc etc ad nausea.

Lumpers are becoming the laughing stock of the world. You go with anything the media tells you too.

Suckers and losers!

LOL, you'd have to be a pretty ------ human being to not see the truth right in front of your eyes

Here I did an explainer:

Maybe you can differentiate what ------- has said from the details of the plan.

If you had any honor you would.

But you don't

So you won't

Cause you're a piece of ----.

Donald Trump's backtracking on Project 2025 didn't seem to fool many " aside from a few hard-line loyalists who expressed betrayal " but apparent proof of his knowledge and endorsement of the far-reaching plan further weakens his claim that he knows "nothing."

In an April 2022 speech before the Heritage Foundation " the ultra-right group behind the 922-page policy manifesto " Trump acknowledged exactly the kind of work they're doing and applauded them for "lay[ing] the groundwork" for his next administration.

"They're going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do," Trump said of the Heritage Foundation and their efforts to " as they describe on the Project 2025 website " "pave the way" for Trump's next administration.

Trump, in April '22, keynoted a Heritage dinner as it began work on Project 2025: "This is a great group & they're going to lay the groundwork & detail plans for exactly what our movement will do ... when the American people give us a colossal mandate to save America." pic.twitter.com/2ni0XESMci" Vaughn Hillyard (@VaughnHillyard) July 11, 2024


Swallow it, Runt.
