      Cool site, thanks.

      The impressively evil thing is, even if by some unexpected miracle the Supreme Court disallows a few specific slivers of Project 2025, there’s simply no way that *most* *of* *it* doesn’t become permanent.

      And stoked by their success, I fully expect Trump et al to go beyond Project 2025. Martial law, suspension of habeus corpus, arrest of non-violent protesters, and cancellation of elections are all on my Trump checklist. Assuming his health holds out, I can’t imagine him not running for an unConstitutional third term, and if he runs, losing will not be allowed as a practical possibility. It’s Trump for Life.
