Russell Vought claims the Project 2025 Agenda Items Trump's enacting are not Project 2025 Agenda Items. USA! USA! USA!

Trump Isn't Making Project 2025 A Reality, Claims Plan's Architect
Russell Vought acted like Trump's moves to eliminate DEI, ban transgender troops and militarize the border weren't pulled directly from the controversial Project 2025 playbook.

During Sunday’s episode of “State of the Union,” CNN moderator Dana Bash got an icy answer when she asked Vought if the overlap between Trump’s agenda and the hyper-conservative political program meant that Project 2025 was coming to fruition.

Though the president repeatedly distanced himself from Project 2025 during his campaign, second-term Trump achievements like eliminating DEI, banning transgender troops and sending the military to crack down on the southern border were all detailed in the far-right policy wish list, for which Vought served on the advisory board.

But Vought, who is now Trump’s director of the Office of Management and Budget, shot down the idea that the Heritage Foundation-helmed initiative inspired any of the president’s actions.

BASH: Is it fair to say that what you are doing now is in part enacting Project 2025?

VOUGHT: No, of course not.

1. Well of course it's a blatant lie.

He's a gop'er and head (previous head?) of one of the conservative stupid tanks (heritage foundation? federalist society?). They have no idea on how to tell the truth, even when it hits them upside the head and knocks them flat to the ground.
