Video Summary
Donald Trump’s allies in a right-wing think tank are promoting Project 2025, a plan to reshape the government if Trump is re-elected. The Heritage Foundation-led initiative proposes dismantling federal departments and increasing presidential control, among other changes. While Trump claims unfamiliarity with the project, key allies are preparing a loyal workforce for a potential second term. Critics, including the Biden campaign, label the plan as a radical threat to American governance and personal freedoms.
