The amount of room they give to interpret that vague statement however they want could fit an aircraft carrier. Their actual policy position is in their project 2025 materials and it curtails legal immigration pretty significantly along similar lines that trump attempted to tread in his first presidency.

Stop spreading mis-info about Trump and Project 2025 which he is not involved in.

  Of course he isn’t involved in it, trump doesn’t come up with any policy. Doesn’t mean it isn’t the position of his party.

    So you're very much inclined to agree if I said "down with America" is the policy of the Democratic party.

  A lot of former Trump administration officials are involved in Project 2025, at least 140, which is more than half of the people listed as authors and contributors to their Mandate for Leadership document [0]. There's also over 100 conservative organizations on the Project 2025 advisory board [1], organizations that have also endorsed Trump for president. There's a lot of overlap in this document with positions that Trump has endorsed. It appears to everyone, on both the left and the right, that Project 2025 is what conservatives want for a future Trump administration. There doesn't seem to be much of a competing vision for the future of the Republican party, certainly nothing as detailed as this 900 page document nor as widely backed by other conservatives. This is why a lot of people are looking at this document. Maybe you should be, too? I do acknowledge that Trump has been trying to distance himself from Project 2025 lately, coinciding with the press coverage the details in that document have been getting.

    > It appears to everyone, on both the left and the right, that Project 2025 is what conservatives want for a future Trump administration. Sure, but it's not Trump's platform. If he wanted to implement those policies, he'd put them in his platform. He didn't. Just like the Democrats, lots of left wing policy groups have a list of policies they'd like Biden to implement. It would be silly of me to assume otherwise. > I do acknowledge that Trump has been trying to distance himself from Project 2025 lately. This is an odd take. "Trying to distance himself"? I think you mean "clarifying that those policies are not his own".
