Confirmed what we suspected. In this climate, I'm not sure how this impacts the election, though. Have said all along that I don't believe that there are a significant numbers of "undecided" voters.
People who were against or for Trump yesterday, will feel the same way after this story.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
In other news we already knew...
It's a ton of his people who co-authored the document.
Republicans are better at marketing, but suck at keeping secrets.

And this is why I'm not pro Trump (or pro any Republican). They always have a 'plan'... that is EVIL and WILL KILL US ALL.
Everybody who was grown during 9/11 should know about the Plan for a New American Century (PNAC). It was a whole thing. This is what they do. They get mad, sit back, and plan. The president is always just a figurehead who opens the door to the REAL evil guy (see: Reagan, former actor, and Bush Sr, for CIA head; or Bush Jr, all around idiot and ne'er do well, and dikk Cheney, longtime background WH staff doing evil shyt, former CFR director and Halliburton CEO).

What Is Project 2025? An Overview Of The Conservative Playbook

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has said he would bring Tom Homan, a Project 2025 contributor, into his administration if he wins November's election.
In a Tuesday appearance on California's KFI radio station, host John Kobylt asked Trump what plans or proposals related to immigration he had "ready to go" if elected.
"You've seen Tom," the former president replied. "You've seen Tom Homan. He's coming on board."
Homan served in Trump's administration from 2017 to 2018 as acting director of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, overseeing the controversial family separation policy at the U.S.-Mexico border.
When asked whether the former president was considering any other Project 2025 contributors for a role in his administration or transition team, should he be elected in November, Steven Cheung, Trump's campaign spokesperson, told Newsweek: "President Trump announced a Trump-Vance transition leadership group to initiate the process of preparing for what comes after the election.
"But formal discussions of who will serve in a second Trump Administration is premature. President Trump will choose the best people for his Cabinet to undo all the damage dangerously liberal Kamala Harris has done to our country." Newsweek has contacted the Harris campaign for comment via email
Danielle Alvarez, a senior adviser to Trump's campaign, also emphasized that the former president has not endorsed Project 2025.

Homan has also worked for the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank behind Project 2025. He is listed as a contributor to the policy document, which proposes mass detention and deportation of undocumented or illegal immigrants in order to "regain control of the border."
Last year, Homan spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference, where he said he did not care about the family separation controversy.
"I'm sick and tired of hearing about the family separation," Homan said. "I'm still being sued over that." He added: "I don't give a s***, right? Bottom line is, we enforced the law."
Although Trump has repeatedly tried to distance himself from Project 2025, his own platform shares broad policy similarities with the document. One of the central policies of Trump's campaign is to carry out "the largest deportation program in American History."
Homan is one of dozens of former Trump administration officials who worked on Project 2025, an almost 900-page document that contains detailed policy plans for a future Republican administration.
It aims to remove civil service employment protections for thousands of federal employees so they can be fired and replaced with Republican loyalists.
Various critics have described this aspect of Project 2025 as "a significant move to an authoritarian government" and likely to "destroy American democracy."
Other Project 2025 proposals include implementing sweeping changes to the federal government, including eliminating the Department of Education; lowering corporation tax; ending the Affordable Care Act; reducing the scope of Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security; rolling back renewable-energy programs to create a regulatory environment that favors the fossil fuel industry; limiting mail-order abortion pills; and removing diversity, equity and inclusion hiring policies from federal programs.
In Project 2025's foreword, Kevin Roberts, the president of the Heritage Foundation, said the policies represented "the next conservative President's last opportunity to save our republic."
In response to Newsweek's request for comment, the Heritage Foundation said, "We are no longer working with Newsweek because of your outlet's lack of journalistic integrity." Newsweek has contacted Homan via online form.
Trump has repeatedly denied accusation by Democrats that he would implement the policies if elected, saying he is unfamiliar with the policies and has "nothing to do" with the authors, though many of them worked in his administration.
Democrats have suggested that Project 2025 represents a policy blueprint for a second Trump term, and that he is only distancing himself from it before the election because the policies are so unpopular with voters.
In April 2022, Trump gave a keynote speech at the Heritage Foundation, saying of the organization: "This is a great group. And they're going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do and what your movement will do when the American people give us a colossal mandate to save America, and that's coming."
Update 10/10/24, 2:35 a.m. ET: This article was updated with a response from the Heritage Foundation.
