FACT CHECK: No, Project 2025 Never Tried to Pass Itself Off as a Trump Operation.

With the news of Project 2025 effectively being laid to rest by its Heritage Foundation incubator, it is worth taking a look at how the only true MAGA operation in Washington, D.C., got demonized and neutered.

2) PROJECT 2025 NEVER CLAIMED PROXIMITY TO TRUMP. Project 2025 was born out of frustration that there were too many RINOs, deep-staters, and Obama holdovers in the first Trump term.

Heritage just so happened to be the only operation in town with the footprint and gravitas to house something like Project 2025.

The fact is that Project 2025 would have been available to help staff any Republican administration on day one and never claimed they were working directly on behalf of President Trump.

3) PLAYING RIGHT INTO THE LEFT'S HANDS. Instead of saying, "Hold on a minute - the Biden campaign has never been asked to distance itself from the ideas of ," the Trump campaign's approach was to immediately start punching right.

Not only is there no ground operation, but there's also no plan to staff up an admin on day one with Trump stalwarts.

"The campaign is more interested in factional warfare with people who have charismatically devoted their professional careers to the President than in actually winning the election. LaCivita, in particular, was doing his victory lap at the convention, blithely ignorant of the fact that Democrats were playing him and the campaign for fools. Democrats changed the narrative days after the convention and Harris is now outworking the Trump campaign as measured by virtually every metric that is used to assess a winning campaign. At this pace, we will be five points underwater by Labor Day with basically a full month of nothing but positive earned media headed the Democrats' way."
