Summary

Despite disavowing Project 2025 during the campaign, Trump’s transition team is now using its extensive database of vetted conservative candidates to help fill over 4,000 government positions.

Project 2025, criticized for its extreme policy proposals and links to Trump’s first administration, created a “conservative LinkedIn” of 10,000 candidates.

While some contributors are being tapped for key roles, others face rejection due to controversial stances.

Democrats, who used Project 2025 in campaign attacks, are warning of its influence on Trump’s agenda and planning policy responses.

    Hope everyone is ready to suffer.

    I’d say blame it on conservatives. But you can also blame it on the absolute idiots that voted 3rd party, were single issue voters, or abstained from voting. They’re just as much to blame and just as stupid as Trump supporters.

        Your reading comprehension skills suck. The original commenter mentioned TWO types of idiots. 1) the morons that voted third party, and 2) the defectives that ABSTAINED from voting.

        I guess your brain only came equipped with 8GB of RAM, because you acted like OP gave you some clever GOTCHA moment by only mentioning 3rd party voters, while you completely disregarded OP including group #2 as well.

        In the future, I recommend you avoid complex tasks, like, say, chewing gum and walking at the same time.

        They are just angry and trying to blame other people for their shitty candidates loss. If they can scapegoat other voters they can feel superior, it’s basically all to protect their fragile feelings.

        Kind of sad really

        Crows got to straw man I guess

          Oh, they’re not angry. They’re just dismayed to learn how many C.H.U.D.s there are in this country who had no problems voting for a narcicistic, low IQ rapist after watching him fuck up for 4 years, and after attempting a coup. Like, seriously, out of all the Republicans to choose from, ya’ll decided Trump was your best and brightest TWICE. It’s like watching the fall of the Roman Empire in real-time.

            You know what’s just as productive as blaming voters? Masturbating into a Kleenex. Unless you have a plan to nominate better voters next cycle (yes, if there is one) then your attention is better spent on how we fix a Democratic party that’s so pathetic that it lost to Trump twice.

            If Rahm Emanuel or another establishment clone is the next DNC chair, get ready to see this happen again. That’s where the focus belongs for anyone who wants to fix this shit.

              Voters saw Trump fuck up four years straight. He’s not wrong about that.

              But voters have seen the Democratic Party slowly devolve into a cesspool of corrupt crony capitalism and campaign donor money for the past 50 years.

              People don’t give a fuck anymore, and I don’t blame them,

              Harris was a trash candidate.

              I get it, blah blah blah, Trump is worse.

              Harris is a trash candidate.

              Just because Whoopi Goldberg and friends try to tell you what a good friend she is doesn’t change this fact. I hope you realize all the talk and news show hosts are in the millionaire class and are so far removed from the realities of everyday Americans… they also get the tax cuts for the wealthy Trump is going to pass, which is why they have no skin in the game.

              Harris was a trash candidate. If you can’t see this simple fact, there’s probably less hope for you than for maga.

              Americans are struggling.

              You know what the democrats did? They tried to tell us that Biden is fucking FDR 2.0

              The juicy turd I just dropped flushed down the toilet while typing this is closer to FDR 2.0 than Biden will ever be, by a long shot.

        I hate self important douche bags who are so used to basking in their own fart clouds that they can’t see how sanctimonious they are and can’t come to terms with the fact that maybe their fart sniffing ideology doesn’t work for all 300M other people in this country.

        Especially when they turn around and call their political opposites sanctimonious fart sniffing hypocrites without acknowledging their own hypocrisy. It annoys me.

        See the nation is healing already!
