In a post on his TruthSocial platform last week, former President Donald Trump attempted to distance himself from the extreme agenda of Project 2025. “I know nothing about Project 2025,” Trump wrote. “I have no idea who is behind it. I disagree with some of the things they’re saying and some of the things they’re saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal. Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them.”Despite Trump’s apparent ignorance of Project 2025, numerous former Trump administration officials contributed to the nearly 1,000-page mandate, including former Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller, former Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Ken Cuccinelli and Peter Navarro, a former top trade advisor to Trump. Trump also has deep ties to The Heritage Foundation, the group behind Project 2025, and the dozens of conservative organizations who contributed to the plan.Original post, June 28The general election is still about four months away and, with the latest polls showing an incredibly tight race, anything can happen in that time.
