Donald Trump is probably fuming about this interview with former Project 2025 director Paul Dans.

One of the architects of the conservative Project 2025 manifesto demonstrated on CNN Monday the many ways in which Donald Trump is tied to the project.

Speaking to Kaitlin Collins on The Source, the project’s former director, Paul Dans, admitted that he’s visited Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate several times and has spoken with Trump’s campaign staff there, including the campaign’s co-chair Susie Wiles.

To the Christians, you can just write in "Jesus" if your conscience bothers you about voting for a convicted felon.
- Youre too late, the republicans already plastered jesus all around their campaign. Its all it took to get their votes apparently
  
  AK-47 Jesus
- Rapist, and adulterer.
- Conscience lol
- reminder: Jesus was also a convicted criminal
  
  Not for rape
  
  This is a fucking weird bOtH siDEs
But but but he just said on the debate he has nothing to do with 2025. Trump wouldn't lie to us! Would he?
- he denied it three times.
  
  🍆🐦‍⬛
- I actually don’t think he’s lying about this. He’s a moron who famously doesn’t read, and he doesn’t need to be included in this. Project 2025 is the Lovecraftian baby of the Heritage Foundation and other fascist groups lurking in trump’s shadow.
  
  Trump is not the driving force behind this fascist movement – he’s just their carnival barker. If he dropped dead today, it would only make a minor dent in this movement.
  
  I think it’s actually dangerous to focus on trump as though he’s the mastermind of this stuff. He is not, and the danger won’t be over once he’s gone.
  
  It's the out of control, moneyed interests in this country that are the real problem.
  
  Wealth inequality is the problem that spawns all other problems, and until we make strides to get it back under control we will forever be putting out little fires that threaten to set the entire country ablaze.
  
  I mostly agree but go the step farther that the danger is pushed back a bit once he’s gone, because what other candidate wouldn’t have his own plan? His own goals? Anyone else would see that merely as a means to an end, and take only the compatible pieces
Any mind demented enough to come up with 900+ pages of fascist garbage is not simply going to vanish into the wind. Trump disavowed it? Gosh, if it wasn't for him lying non-stop for decades, I might buy that BS. Sorry, no sale.
Bruh. Any one of these shitbags could go on fox “news” and tell viewers that the plan is to rape and murder their own children for the fuck of it, and he’d lose no one. Not a single mindless Republican traitor would give a fuck.
Ehhh, I saw that interview yesterday, and I would not characterize it as Dans "confess[ing to] deep Trump ties." NewRepublic is again not a very fair source.
No shit.
