In the battle for the soul of the Democratic Party, strategists think Project 2029 can shape the future agenda. But are they learning from past mistakes or ignoring the voices of progressives like Mamdani, Sanders, and AOC?

    Project 2029, in summary:

    • More money for cops
    • More money for the military
    • Less money on social programs
    • More tax cuts for billionaires
    • A tiny tax cut for some of the working class, that expires in 2 years

      Less money on social programs

      How dare you, they would never lower them even more than they have been!

      They would maintain the status quo, and in 3 years open up an inquiry as to whether a committee could be established to contemplate on the possibility of maybe increasing their budgets by 0.00001% over the next 100 years (which can be canceled at any time for no reason)

      Then sit back and pat themselves on the back for being such a man/woman of the people.
