Albaby... do you know for a fact Trump doesn't know what these people were writing and planning, or are you assuming that Trump is not lying... or what.

As I prefaced that sentence, Trump is a raging narcissist. He is interested in himself, and himself alone.

I don't ever assume that Trump is telling the truth, but I do assume that the most likely choice he ever and always makes is the selfish one. He's not going to be interested in the lives of the thousands of people who were loyal to him while he was in office just because that's the decent thing for someone to do. He's only going to be interested in them if they're doing something for him now.

So I'm fairly confident that Trump wasn't the least bit involved in this project, because it doesn't have any of the things that the raging narcissistic arsehole that is Trump would have insisted on. He wasn't paid for it. It's not named after him - either "Trump" or "45" or "47" or what have you. It includes things that aren't abject subservience to him and his worldview, like an entire section on how tariffs and protectionism are bad. Worse still, if you read the document it has virtually no praise for Trump in it. It doesn't say how awesome he is, how these are all his ideas, how fantastically amazing Trump is.

But the main reason? The key way you know that this isn't Trump's project?

It's a BOOK.

Trump doesn't read. He doesn't write. He's perhaps the most non-intellectual President we've had in a century or more.

Trump's campaign has a manifesto. One that's just as terrible as Project 2025 - moreso because it's the one that's actually Trump's manifesto. And it takes the form of a series of short videos - NOT A BOOK! Because that's who Trump is. Trump is TV Guy, not Book Guy.
