Democrats Critique Project 2025 at Convention

During the Democratic National Convention, Vice President Kamala Harris and party allies have highlighted Project 2025, a conservative policy document crafted by the Heritage Foundation, as a central theme against former President Donald Trump. Michigan state Senator Mallory McMorrow dramatically presented a giant version of the 900-page 'Mandate for Leadership' at the convention, claiming it outlines extreme proposals for Trump's potential second term. Despite Trump's denials of involvement with Project 2025 and ignorance of the Heritage Foundation, Democrats aim to link him to its controversial plans, which include expanding presidential power and firing thousands of government employees. Pennsylvania Representative Malcolm Kenyatta also criticized the document, labeling it a regressive economic agenda. The DNC plans to discuss Project 2025 every night, using it as a tool to portray Trump as a threat to American democracy. The ongoing narrative aims to frame the upcoming election as a battle against what Democrats describe as a radical Republican agenda.
