You say that like it's no big deal. So Trump will just weaponize the DOJ, using it to harass and potentially jail his political enemies. And implementing schedule F is just a political choice, like taxation and foreign policy.
I'm not saying those policies are not a big deal. I'm saying that those choices would have virtually nothing to do with Project 2025, any more than local Democrats' efforts to implement various climate change responses or other progressive goals had anything to do with the UN's Agenda 21. There's overlap between what Trump would want to do and some of the things in Project 2025, as you would expect: Project 2025 is a sprawling right-wing populist policy document that offers opinions on virtually every aspect of government. But that doesn't mean that Project 2025 itself is a big deal.
Which is why I think that Project 2025 isn't going to be much more significant in these elections than Agenda 21 was in prior elections for Republicans. It's a useful tool for getting your base really angry and upset and scared, which helps with fundraising and driving engagement. But if you try to use that with normies or independents or persuadable voters, they're going to suss out - correctly - that the policy document itself isn't that big of a deal, and that the more outre proposals in that policy document aren't really going to be implemented.
