Check out his other plan…. Agenda 47….. This and Project 2025 should have every Freedom loving American running to vote against this fucking scumbag…. They seriously think he’s joking about becoming a Dictator/Autocrat…. It’s not a fucking joke. It’s not fucking hyperbole and rhetoric…. It’s his plan to turn himself into “King”
Yea we decided to stay with Project 2025 because Agenda 47 seems to be just a rebrand in an attempt to muddy the waters on Project 2025, but all of it definitely is an attempt to become a king
Agenda47 was a product of the Trump campaign ( in the pre-primary stage) so Trump cannot credibly disassociate himself from it.
Trump really doesn’t have a serious policy agenda other than
1. It’s ALL about me, my power, my glorification, increasing my wealth.
Anyone against any of this is my mortal enemy. I must be-the law!! I demand loyalty.
2. Hatred and fear of “others”, especially women (other than as sex toys) and black and brown people.
As john bolton says, he does deals, not policy.
Because of this lack of decent policy ideas he is weak and incomplete as a President. This weakness attracts prople with policy agendas that have been firmly rejected by the founders and ever since. agendas against america itself (eg Putin, Kim) or agendas to fundamentally change America (those who want very limited government, no free elections, cancel the bill of rights or terminate the whole constitution etc., isolationists ) He will trade adoption of their policy agendas for adulation, money and/or votes. Because he is a very unself-aware narcissist he does not realize he has become their puppet.
Project 2025 is a massive accumulation of such unpopular policies. Of course he doesnt know what’s actually in it, (920 pages—cmon man!!) but he knows he will be in charge of it by hiring the brains of it, who have falsely convinced him of their personal loyalty.
Scott I hope kamala slams trump and the whole gop and scotus for being traitors by siding with Russia and putin and hiw they betray the American people every day!!!!!!!
Right, but I'm worried less about him than about the neofascists, billionaires, and other cretins behind him. He didn't write those plans. He's a means to the right-wingers' end.
Heritage Foundation did…. They’ve been writing Republican and Centrist policy for decades…. It’s now so friggin extreme, you’d be hard pressed to call them the same company.
I'm really surprised by this transformation. They were always right-wing, but they used to be pro-democracy, at least in public. Project 2025 is a whole different animal.
I get it, but I also get how USians tend to overfocus on individuals rather than the ideologies, organizations, corporations, *and money* behind them. It's one reason the right wing has been running circles around liberals for decades.
Project 2025 overarching power for a president, the recent Supreme Court ruling that says a president is not accountable for crimes committed in office, Trump's own statements that he will "be dictator for a day" and that he wants "vengeance"--
SHOULD ALARM EVERYONE!
The Center for American Progress makes it easy to understand what Trump's Project 2025 would do-- starting on Day One of a Republican presidency:
I absolutely do NOT agree. When someone is passionately angry and righteously so, sometimes only swearing gets the full flavor across. I say go for it! I have done more swearing since Trump came on the scene than I have in the 50 years before. It keeps me sane!
Agenda 47 is just a watered-down version of Project 2025. They know their cult doesn't read or fact-check, so the new ones won't have any idea what's really in Project 2025/Agenda 47. Ever seen reporters interview those clowns? It's pathetic. The quiet members of that movement don't want to give their hand away any more than they already have. It's all about being a Christian Nationalist which is code word for White Supremacist. More than scaring me, it pisses me off. They'll never take this country without a fight. Too many different kinds of people in the U.S. This is OUR country, not theirs.
Let’s be constantly mindful that we are playing offense now. While Trump and his minions, including Roberts of the Heritage Fndn and the currently incarcerated Bannon of the War Room threaten American citizens with bloodshed and bloodbath if we don’t knuckle under on Day One, we must blow right through their pathetic and dangerous rhetoric and send the whole Maga crowd packing. Stay psyched!
Kamala has rekindled hope in so many places and in the hearts of so many people, all across the country. She will win in a landslide, in numbers too big to rig and too real to steal. My only concern is the possible violent MAGA response. Let’s be prepared.
Exactly why Biden needs to be fully active in the W.H. until the moment Kamala has been sworn in so he can active the National Guard in the weeks leading up to the vote certification as well as keeping the FBI engaged in whatever undercover they may be doing to keep an ear to the ground for groups and individuals planning to be Patriots and usurp the will of the people.
(an aside here. I'd really like to see the swearing in be done on a copy of the Constitution, since it's the Constitution elected officials, servicemen/women are swearing to protect and defend; and since the Constitution contains the directive that church and state must remain separate, just end the oath with a simple "so help me."
That is a great thought about swearing in on the Constitution. On another note, it's a little scary to me when he keeps saying that he "doesn't need the votes"; "we have all the votes we need". What does that mean exactly and why doesn't anyone ask what it means? Marc Elias and his team are challenging every legal threat to voting rights so if local election officials "mess" with those, there are reprecussions. I would love to see POTUS use the immunity SCOTUS gave him before he leaves to secure voting rights, abortion and reproductive rights, and oh yes - rid the nation of the electoral college process. Popular vote wins!
Hi Ema...Great question about "doesn't need the votes"
I don't think I could explain it any easier...so check out this article and it describes the process of nominating an individual for a party's Presidential Candidate.
The electoral college is an outdated and convoluted method of delegating people with a number of votes for each states' population (and harkens back to slave-holding states as well.)
(The following isn't exactly a "Schoolhouse rock" explanation, but it's as easy as a convoluted election process can be)
"She will win in a landslide, in numbers too big to rig and too real to steal."
Good phrasing!
My fear is that after Harris sweeps both the popular vote AND the Electoral College, Trump's people will file a bunch of frivolous lawsuits hoping to get their corrupt SCOTUS to twist the Constitution (once again) and overthrow the election for him in a 6-3 decision.
Energy and euphoria are great, but pay close attention to Scott's next-to-last paragraph, about how the mainstream media are spinning the opposition. Unsourced stories that begin with stuff like "Blue city police say . . ." This is how they helped drag President Biden down, and they'll do it to VP Harris too. We need to be calling them out whenever possible.
It means police in blue cities like SF, NY, Boston, Chicago . . .That's why it's so nasty, and how infuriating it is that the so-called legit media lets its sources spew stuff like this without identifying themselves.
I agree with you 100%!! Trump is putins puppet. I do believe that Moscow has had their fingers deep in our elections since 2016. They found a dumbass who would do as they please. It just fired up all the hateful people in our country
Right now I’m feeling like this could be a landslide. Don’t ask me to explain. It’s a feeling. But I will say that I base my feelings on current events and the way the electorate is changing. It’s changing quickly too if you notice. If she continues down this fruitful road she’s on, it’s over for Donald.
I agree with you. I’ve never been very fond of Kamala, but I think that it’s because I didn’t really hear much from her as VP. I wasn’t sure if I would be thrilled with her as a candidate. Boy was I wrong!! She came out running, and hard! I have a new sense of hope and admiration for her. She’s exactly what we needed.
Ange, And they can’t make us comply with ANYTHING-if that we choose not to. They call Dr Kamala an illegitimate candidate while a FELON-RAPIST-SEDITIONIST is at the top of THEIR ticket.

Isn’t Agenda 47 the Republican platform?
Yes, it's re-branding.
Agenda 47 is a watered-down, sanitized, Cliff Notes version of Project 2025.
Agenda47 was a product of the Trump campaign ( in the pre-primary stage) so Trump cannot credibly disassociate himself from it.
Trump really doesn’t have a serious policy agenda other than
1. It’s ALL about me, my power, my glorification, increasing my wealth.

Trump is their puppet and their fool.
.
I tried watching the many videos on Trump's campaign website that discuss Agenda 47.
[he wrote, suppressing a gag reflex]
But the stuff in his videos is so closely aligned with Project 2025 that it's hard to disconnect the two.
Pass the watered down version and reenforce it to full strength later.
Scott I hope kamala slams trump and the whole gop and scotus for being traitors by siding with Russia and putin and hiw they betray the American people every day!!!!!!!
Right, but I'm worried less about him than about the neofascists, billionaires, and other cretins behind him. He didn't write those plans. He's a means to the right-wingers' end.
They knew he was so lazy that if they wrote him a plan he could take credit for, that he would let folks follow it.
Heritage Foundation did…. They’ve been writing Republican and Centrist policy for decades…. It’s now so friggin extreme, you’d be hard pressed to call them the same company.
I'm really surprised by this transformation. They were always right-wing, but they used to be pro-democracy, at least in public. Project 2025 is a whole different animal.
But we start with taking tRump down and anyone else the foundation can field up and down the ballot 🗳 🤔
I get it, but I also get how USians tend to overfocus on individuals rather than the ideologies, organizations, corporations, *and money* behind them. It's one reason the right wing has been running circles around liberals for decades.
Agree
Valid point
🗣️Hopefully king of the cell block. King of hatred & chaos

Maybe fewer ‘f’ words will make your message clearer to many who stop “listening” (reading) after the first one 🫶🏼
Sorry, but I agree!
I agree !!!
I absolutely do NOT agree. When someone is passionately angry and righteously so, sometimes only swearing gets the full flavor across. I say go for it! I have done more swearing since Trump came on the scene than I have in the 50 years before. It keeps me sane!
Exactly!! And don’t forget about schedule F that TFG was trying to get into law before his term ended. He’s sick
Already read this earlier today & bored w f word exclamatory exhalation overkill🙃

Great idea! Follow it w recommendation to whomever makes decisions about swearing in’s

Gaming !
Love your rhyming memorable phrases!☺️
Beverly agreed 💯

The title was truly horrible. I had to delete part of it, it was that bad. And of course, it was Fox.
I thought Blue city police was an organization?
nah just a term, but they want it to sound like an organization
It means police in blue cities like SF, NY, Boston, Chicago . . .That's why it's so nasty, and how infuriating it is that the so-called legit media lets its sources spew stuff like this without identifying themselves.
My guess is it's coming from a basement with wifi in Moscow...
I agree with you 100%!! Trump is putins puppet. I do believe that Moscow has had their fingers deep in our elections since 2016. They found a dumbass who would do as they please. It just fired up all the hateful people in our country
I've been around long enough to believe that it's all home-grown -- but Moscow may well be interested.
She’s just getting started. She has hit the ground running!
Absolutely Brilliant.
Point for point contrast for comparison with MAGA !
Donald is so screwed.
If everyone does the work, absolutely.
Yesss!! I believe he is
She’s on Fire 🔥
Right now I’m feeling like this could be a landslide. Don’t ask me to explain. It’s a feeling. But I will say that I base my feelings on current events and the way the electorate is changing.

No need to explain David. I know what you mean.

Boy was I wrong!! She came out running, and hard! I have a new sense of hope and admiration for her. She’s exactly what we needed.
My prayers are with your words!
Logic. Honesty. Concern. No name-calling. Fresh air.
It really is Ed
SPOT ON! She's out of the gate and doing it all perfectly....there is a general feeling of relief and hope now. WHEW! 👏👏👏
I agree Susan
These extremist think that we all want to go back to the 19th century…we won’t go back!!!
Ange, And they can’t make us comply with ANYTHING-if that we choose not to. They call Dr Kamala an illegitimate candidate while a FELON-RAPIST-SEDITIONIST is at the top of THEIR ticket.
Can you believe it? Surreal
We are in a hell of a fight and with KH we have a hell of a leader. It is time to knock maga to the curb, to put their bile back where it belongs.
I think they're still hoping for that "bloodless" revolution.
Absolutely
Absolutely!!!
I wish I could vote for her right now.
As a public schoolteacher this speech just hit differently. ❤️
She’s exactly what we need. Thank you Joe.
Truly a gift to our beleaguered country
Did anyone find it beyond ironic that a big cop’s union supports the felon in the room? And these guys call themselves the face of law and order.
No doubt their union is getting ‘support’ from Heritage funds…
