Project 2025, a massive ultraconservative state reform, has garnered media and public attention. Democratic supporters seek to link Donald Trump’s candidacy to it, while he tries to distance himself. Actually, what is Project 2025?
The conservative Heritage Foundation produced Project 2025, a 922-page book in 2023, originally titled Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise. It wants to give the next Republican president a road map “from day one of taking office,” which could be January 20, 2025, if Trump is re-elected.
Based on the idea that “the moral foundations” of American society are in danger, the nationalist and Christian pamphlet presents a detailed, multi-point plan for the movement to “take the reins of government” and save the US from “disaster.”
The thirty-odd chapters read like an extreme right-wing election program. It proposes eliminating the Department of Education, sending the military to the Mexican border to fight illegal immigration, drastically cutting environmental rules, and criminalizing pornography.
Project 2025 also targets LGBTQ+ (and trans) rights, abortion, and migrants.
Equally troubling is the proposal to allow the president-elect to fire thousands of disloyal government personnel and replace them with trustworthy allies. A Trump executive order that was rejected, Schedule F, authorized the president to remove federal employees deemed “corrupt, incompetent, or useless.” Restoring it would politicize the civil service.
The Heritage Foundation has created this strategy plan for every presidential election since 1980. The Reagan administration, which ruled from 1981 until 1989, adopted its first edition.
Project 2025 is the ninth. Victor Bardou-Bourgeois, Raoul-Dandurand Chair researcher and American right expert, says its unfettered nature draws attention.
“The text plainly implies that you need the right individuals in Washington to achieve a conservative policy, which has raised concerns. The great conservative family assumes you must provide the ideal conditions to launch its political program.”
Project 2025 also seeks to expand the president’s authority and weaken federal agencies like the FBI, Justice Department, and EPA, which critics say threatens American democracy.
Americans have two executive branches: the president and government agencies. Project 2025 seeks to remove agencies and give the president and White House control of the executive branch “Bardou-Bourgeois summarizes.
Donald Trump program?
The 2025 Project was produced in 2023 before Trump became Republican presidential contender. However, its immigration measures match Mr. Trump’s campaign platform.
Not surprising because several first Trump administration individuals are in the drafting group.
Le Devoir found that 15 of Donald Trump’s allies drafted the text out of 34 authors. Chris Miller, former Secretary of Defense, Ben Carson, former Secretary of Housing, and Russell Vought, who helped create the Republican Party political program, are among them.
Project 2025 is unpopular with many voters, thus Donald Trump is trying to disassociate himself from it. He has frequently claimed to know nothing about its writers or contents. “These are extreme proposals, seriously extreme,” he remarked during a campaign rally. “I know nothing about it. Nothing about it please.”
“One of Donald Trump’s strengths is that he can read the mood,” says Victor Bardou-Bourgeois. “He knows Project 2025’s abortion, justice, and immigration ideas are unpopular with huge parts of the American people. The Republican candidate knows not to discuss this because it’s not electorally winning.”
Heritage Foundation says it “does not speak for any candidate or campaign.” Paul Dans, who wrote the document, left the research tank lately.
Democratic candidates still use Project 2025 to attack Republicans. Recently, Kamala Harris’ campaign manager, Julie Chávez Rodríguez, dubbed the document “a political program written by Trump’s allies to impose on our country.”
The actual threat to democracy?
Victor Bardou-Bourgeois claims that the executive branch has been consolidating power in the US since the Civil War of 1861-1865. Every decade delivers greater powers to the executive branch, for better or worse. Yes, it’s hazardous, but it won’t end American democracy.”
The researcher worries that this concentration could occur when Congress and the judiciary are dysfunctional.
“If elected, will Donald Trump end the American Republic? “Unsure,” admits Victor Bardou-Bourgeois. It’s certain that Project 2025 will give the president additional power. All this while the legal system becomes more politicized and Congress struggles to operate. Checks and balances in the American executive branch are failing.”
