“Trump lies therefore whatever he says is a lie” is not a preamble to convincing a discerning audience that something is actually going to happen IF elected.

I read P2025, it's not hyperbole to say that nothing less than the fate of our country is at stake.

Calls for Biden to step down are impotent, and at this point odious. He's vowed to stay in the race and I support him. There's a lot of noise about his age, his debate performance et al, propaganda ideas our adversaries are pushing. I'm not falling for it.

In my opinion, Biden should resign the presidency. Kamala Harris becomes the 47th president of the United States. For vice president, my favorite candidate would be Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. The Democrats turn their convention into a remembrance of the Biden presidency and its many accomplishments. Focus on what is at stake in the November election with a Trump dictatorship and Project 2025 establishing a Fascist NeoNazi Christian Nationalist right wing regime. This takes all the attention off Biden, his health and his electability. Now the issue becomes Trump and Trump alone. Hit the ground running after the convention. Then Attack Trump! Attack Trump! Attack Trump! Just my opinion. The Biden resignation would allow Harris to run as the incumbent which is an advantage.

Late to this party...but here's a few cents worth...TCF claims...He knows nothing about it … and yet disagrees with some of it. TCF claims... He thinks they are doing ridiculous things … and yet wishes them luck.

And...hey, Seniors get a clue...The initiative suggests privatizing various public services and reducing the scope of federal social programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Your Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are squarely in its headlights. And that means cuts in benefits will be a 'comin if Trump is elected. These cuts will affect ALL seniors of all political stripes and yep, you Repub seniors are in that number, too!

These changes would shift to a greater reliance on state and local governments, as well as private entities, for the provision of these types of services.

Trump and project 2025:

Make Justice and FBI into the KGB.

Institutionalize kickbacks, bribery, extortion and corruption.

Jim Crow the nation.

Make childbirth deadly again.

Basically make the United States into a mafia state controlled by a cruel racist sexist kleptocracy of old white men and their greedy hangers on.

As usual, Rick, you are spot on. The visual you paint of the prospect of these people back in power is frightening and a disaster in the making, as with anything that Trump touches!

Here's a glossary of acronyms I made while I read P2025. I created it as a public resource for the public in an effort to raise awareness of the plan.

Please share it as widely as possible.

Trump admires Putin’s dictatorship and kleptocracy. He admires Orbans and Xi one party rule. He admires N Korea requiring 24 hour adoration of dear leader.

Flying the American flag at the end of 4 yrs of Trump and his coup will be an act of defiance.

How many you want to bet would fail it?

Thank you for promoting hard hitting media exposing the fascism of Trump and Trumpists. Now somebody please help the Biden campaign re-write their watery warning about Project 2025 on the Biden campaign website https://joebiden.com/project2025/ The headline is almost a paragraph long. The intro is boring and wordy. All the truly frightening points about Project 2025 are so far below, I'd be surprised if any visitor scrolls that far down. Sigh.
