Journalists are reporting on the activities taking place at the White House and the process
Throughout the election campaign, President-elect Donald J. Trump denied any involvement with a conservative policy proposal called Project 2025 that aimed to reform the federal government. Despite the fact that many of his supporters were part of the project’s development, Trump claimed he had no connection to it.
During a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, Mr. Trump criticized several policy goals as being "absolutely ridiculous" and stated that he had no intention of reading them.
As he prepares for his comeback to the White House, Mr. Trump has enlisted the help of several architects and supporters to manage important matters such as the federal budget, intelligence collection, and his proposed mass deportation plans.
Critics argue that it is not surprising that there has been a shift in Mr. Trump’s stance. He distanced himself from the lengthy manifesto after it was found to be very unpopular among voters. Now that he has been re-elected for a second term, critics believe he is ignoring those concerns.
According to Tony Carrk, the executive director of Accountable.US, President-elect Trump has abandoned any facade and is now openly aligning with conservative industry figures to push forward an agenda he previously denied during his campaign. Accountable.US has been monitoring Mr. Trump’s cabinet selections with connections to this agenda.
