Transition officials have used Project 2025's extensive personnel database to identify potential hires for the incoming administration, a person familiar with the plans said.

Summary

Despite disavowing Project 2025 during the campaign, Trump’s transition team is now using its extensive database of vetted conservative candidates to help fill over 4,000 government positions.

Project 2025, criticized for its extreme policy proposals and links to Trump’s first administration, created a “conservative LinkedIn” of 10,000 candidates.

While some contributors are being tapped for key roles, others face rejection due to controversial stances.

Democrats, who used Project 2025 in campaign attacks, are warning of its influence on Trump’s agenda and planning policy responses.

      Your reading comprehension skills suck. The original commenter mentioned TWO types of idiots. 1) the morons that voted third party, and 2) the defectives that ABSTAINED from voting.

      I guess your brain only came equipped with 8GB of RAM, because you acted like OP gave you some clever GOTCHA moment by only mentioning 3rd party voters, while you completely disregarded OP including group #2 as well.

      In the future, I recommend you avoid complex tasks, like, say, chewing gum and walking at the same time.

      They are just angry and trying to blame other people for their shitty candidates loss. If they can scapegoat other voters they can feel superior, it’s basically all to protect their fragile feelings.

      Kind of sad really

      Crows got to straw man I guess
