    A few “plans” from [Project 2025 “Mandate for Leadership”](https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf) manifesto

    * Stop efforts to lower prescription drug prices

    * Cut overtime protections and workers rights

    * Limit access to food assistance

    * Eliminate the Head Start early education program for children

    * Cut American Rescue Plan (ARP) programs

    * Restrict access to abortion medication

    * Push Medicare enrollees towards Medicare Advantage private options

    * Deny students access to student loans

    * Roll back civil rights protections across multiple fronts, including cutting diversity, equity, and inclusion-related (DEI) programs and LGBTQ+ rights in health care, education, and workplaces

    Article translation: Democrats focus attack on a small think-tank who has a website and ignore the candidates who are actually running for office.  

     Yeah, this is a great idea!

    Republicans have avoided having an actual platform for the last 8 years, because when they articulate their goals they’re incredibly unpopular.

  6. FACT: In 2023, convicted felon Trump formally adopted Project 2025 into his platform, calling it Agenda 47…. a mix of Project 2025 and other fascist nonsense aimed at enslaving women and bolstering a closeted white male overclass.

  7. It does seem Project 2025 is breaking through some news coverage.

    In order for it to stick for non terminally online folks, needs to be summed up in like 1-2 sentences. “Trumps plan for Christian Nationalism” or something.

  8. Oh you mean that unofficial playbook they have been following to a T? Yeah I’d say it’s smart to focus on their literal playbook.

    Don’t let the conservatives try to brush it off. And don’t let them pull individual lines out. Always focus on the whole body of project 2025. It’s designed to punish people and terrorize a nation.

    Truly this should be the entirety of their attacks because quite honestly Project 2025 is everything they’ve said they’ve wanted to do for the past 20+ years. Once the convention happens and the nominee is locked in there should be a massive wave of dem officials going on air and going on and on about P2025. 

  11. It’s interesting that the Washington Post frames this as a Democratic attack. Why not focus on the fascist agenda of repubs?

    Hey Republicans & Russian trolls, let me save you the effort:

    1. I have supported Biden for X, but he needs to go because he isn’t perfect.

    a. agree and notch up the rhetoric

    b. agree, use analogy or continue rhetoric in some way

    2. His arrogance will get Trump elected.

    a. agree and notch up the rhetoric

    b. agree, use analogy or continue rhetoric in some way

    3. Make a false equivalency between Biden and Trump.

    a. agree and notch up the rhetoric

    b. agree, use analogy or continue rhetoric in some way

    Some other variations, but they get more dull:

    4. Say that there was no primary

    5. Falsely claim Biden said he would be a one term president

    6. Analogy about him being old

    7. Too old and blame Democrat leadership for a cover-up (or corporate elites).

    8. Biden dismisses any concerns about him.

    9. Biden = RGB (because there isn’t a VP?)

    10. You must be blue MAGA if you want to elect Joe.

    11. A short series where you correct the last poster with “goodtest”

    Any one want to add to these? The lameness and repetition is getting as dull as a Trump speech.
