When Democrats and their media allies bring up the topic of Project 2025, the Imperial March theme music might start playing in the background.
But that’s where the Democratic Party’s desperation has come at this critical moment for its party and its presidential candidate, Joe Biden, who is fighting to either be forever known as the man who fought against all odds to defeat Donald Trump again, or to go down in history as the first president to be ousted by an internal revolt.
So what exactly is Project 2025? It’s a 900-page vision for the next Republican administration, created by the Heritage Foundation, if Trump wins on November 5. In its broadest sense, it includes anti-liberal ideas, as well as cutting federal bureaucracy and restricting abortion and illegal immigration.

Liberals quickly jumped on the proposal, desperately, but unintentionally and hilariously, trying to make Project 2025 the official policy of a future Trump administration and the Republican Party as a whole.

“There’s one thing Donald Trump can depend on: lying to the American people in his pursuit of power. We saw it firsthand when he set the record straight on the debate stage,” Biden argued, reading from a teleprompter during a recent campaign speech. “We must come together and defeat him.”
But wait… Trump deny Have you been planning for 2025 without any ambiguity lately?
yes.
“I don’t know anything about Project 2025. I don’t know who’s behind it,” Trump said earlier this month. “I don’t agree with some of the things they say, some of the things they say are totally ridiculous and terrible. I wish them the best of luck in whatever they do, but I have nothing to do with them.”
Well, that’s pretty conclusive, isn’t it?
No problem: the media has a story to tell, and Trump calling Project 2025 “totally ridiculous and terrible” is not going to cut it in the eyes of the media.
Judge says Maddow and other MSNBC hosts made ‘verifiably false’ statements in doctor’s defamation lawsuit
Along came Rachel Maddow, the GOAT of the Russia Collusion Hoax case, and destroyed whatever credibility remained while calling herself a “journalist.”
“President Trump is trying to abolish the American political system, to abolish a government that does anything but serve the president. That’s what Project 2025 is about,” she said during an appearance on ABC News’ “The View,” which was probably pretty comfortable for the MSNBC host.

“Trump and his movement are not just against the Democratic Party, they’re against democracy,” she continued, like an endless loop of a broken record. “They’re against the democratic process. They want to fundamentally change the system that we have, the government that we have.”
In an attempt to bring a little bit of logic back into the situation, conservative podcaster Ben Shapiro testified before Congress on Wednesday, confronting Eric Swalwell, a social media troll who serves as a Democratic congressman in his spare time.
The exchange was clearly epic.
“As one of the most representative conservative voices in the country, I think it’s important that you’re here,” Swalwell told Shapiro, “and in the last few weeks, people across the country have been talking about and Googling ‘Project 2025.’ It’s one of the most Googled keywords right now.”
What Swalwell didn’t mention is that Biden’s X account was literally encouraging its followers to do just that. But that’s not the point.
Swalwell then asked Shapiro to what extent he supported the Project 2025 platform “on a scale of 0% to 100%.”
“Like President Trump, I don’t think I’ve looked into Project 2025 in that much depth,” Shapiro responded, “but the Democrats on this committee seem to be like Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, and if they say ‘Project 2025’ enough times, their presidential candidate comes back to life.”
Ouch. And it’s accurate.

Clearly, the landscape of the 2024 presidential election has changed dramatically over the past two weeks. Trump was leading by a slim margin nationally, but Democrats were fearful of a major defeat after Biden’s disastrous defeat in the Nov. 5 debate in Atlanta.
“Joe Biden had a nine-point lead in the last election. Hillary Clinton had a five-point lead. [in 2016]”This is the first time in more than 20 years that we’ve had a Republican president on this stage of the campaign trail,” Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) noted this week.
“I think Donald Trump is on track to win this election, probably in a landslide victory and take control of the Senate and the House of Representatives,” he added.

The big problem for Democrats, and their friends in the media, is that credibility has been completely blown away, given Biden’s debate performance and the obvious mental decline he displayed to the public that night. And it’s a cautionary tale as the party and most media outlets try to fall back on the old “Republicans are an existential threat to democracy” card by trying to link Trump to policy proposals that he rejected in the strongest terms.
Because by continuing to call Trump a racist and a xenophobe, and portraying him as a fictional Darth Vader with extreme intentions, despite him never once demonstrating anything close to that during his first term, he is arguably Just maybe… The important voters you are seeking may call that very thing “nonsense.”
