For months, former President Donald Trump has been distancing himself from Project 2025. The plan is a set of conservative policy proposals for a future Republican administration put out by the Heritage Foundation.
But recently it came to light that Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, has written a forward to a new book by Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts. Meantime, CNN has obtained a video of the co-author of Project 2025 telling undercover climate activists that he is secretly laying the groundwork for a Trump administration.
