If Donald Trump is re-elected president in November, a coalition of more than 50 right-wing organizations known as Project 2025 will be ready with a plug-and-play plan for him to follow, starting with a database of potential administration appointees carefully vetted by coalition members; an online “Presidential Administration Academy” run by coalition members to school new appointees; and a 920-page policy platform called Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise.

    Part of me wonders if this whole thing is all just a secret ploy by the NRA to encourage more democrats to buy guns. Because every day I learn something new about Project 2025, and the feeling of “I should be better-defended” creeps in.

      Yes. Actually that is the plan.

      I don’t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub.

      They want the chaos. They want government to be broken. That way they’ll pay few to no taxes, they can afford filters for their water. They can afford clean food and drugs.
