    1 they didn’t think they could go so far so fast until trump

    2 project 2025 explicitly comes as a result of them not being able to do it in 2017. They tried to through executive fiat but the administrative state stood in the way

    P25 will do away with everyone who is not a loyalist. They have a list of the goodest thumb headed chuds who have taken a loyalty oath

        The major thing that separates Project 2025 from previous conservative platforms is that it ditches the entire administrative state right away, replacing the entrenched bureaucrats who make up the ‘deep state’ (not in the QAnon boogeyman sense) with a pre-selected roster of vetted conservatives who Heritage Foundation deems more loyal to Trump than to the liberal order

        The administrative state can’t oppose its own deletion…unless, as you suggested, the military gets involved. If there isn’t an immediate and direct rebuke by the Armed Forces of that deep state replacement phase of the project, then Trump will probably get away with it

        What can I say? interesting times await us all…

      I’m not going to try and downplay the potential harm of P25, but it’s also ridiculously optimistic and kinda reminds me of those McDojo moves where you disarm 5 guys and kung foo flip them across the room.

      At its heart P25 is a jobs programme for the lamest bowtie republican nerds. They better plan how to control who Trump meets every second of every day, cause it takes only a couple of fast talking skidoo dealership owners to shove them in a locker and jumpy the queue.

      And that’s before the deep state actually pushes back on their bullshit. Planning for the most bloodless ghouls running the torment nexus to just roll over for them is peak Krav Maga mindset.

        Depends on the office I’d wager.

        People in sciences and policy shit most likely will roll over. I know someone who has been in state department for 20+ years and he’s said a lot of people would straight up leave because they can’t take another 4 years of trump for their own health

      Have they actually been recruiting for government worker replacements? Because that’s been the most glaring flaw to me. They’re talking about replacing tens of thousands of government workers. I don’t think they have enough bow tie dorks.
