Cory Doctorow

There was never any question as to whether Trump would implement Project 2025, the 900-page brick of terrifying and unhinged policy prescriptions edited by the Heritage Foundation. He would *not* implement it, because he *could* not implement it. No one could. It's impossible.

@pluralistic the thin edge of the wedge issues

@pluralistic

Great piece, per usual.

"Project 2025 isn't just a guide to the masturbatory fantasies of the worst people in American politics–far more importantly, it is a detailed map of the fracture lines in the GOP coalition, the places where it is liable to split and shatter. This is an important point if you want to do more about Trumpism than run around feeling miserable and scared. If you want to fight, Project 2025 is a guide to the weak spots where an attack will do the most damage."

Just because he can't doesn't mean he won't try.

@pluralistic I plan to share your article far and wide, thank you for writing it.

As an aside, I heard you recently on @drvolts’s Volts podcast. Terrific discussion!
