LOL. Vance wrote the foreword to a coming Project 2025 book

[servermsh]

@kylewilsontharp

Wow. The architect of Project 2025, Kevin Roberts, has a new book coming out in September about taking over Washington.

JD Vance wrote the foreword.

EDIT: On the Amazon page for the book, in the review section, Vance says:

In the fights that lay ahead, these ideas are an essential weapon. — Senator JD Vance

1. This is JD's platform for the presidency. TFG is along for the ride

The only complication is that they are arrogant enough to get it out in the public so soon. Might prove problematic. Can’t wait for the VP debate.

[PatSeg]

16. Yeah, Trump better not turn his back on Vance

Trump may be a snake, but Vance is an even bigger snake and he is younger and hungry.

[Irish_Dem]

28. Trump better watch his back period.

[PatSeg]

30. That is true, he's made an awful lot of enemies

[Irish_Dem]

31. The list of suspects would be very long.

All the people he has hurt and damaged.

The people he has defrauded, cheated, raped, tricked, bullied, sued, caused them to lose
their law licenses, those jailed, family of those he killed, etc.

2. What Project 2025?

I don't see no Project 2025

3. Shady vance strikes again!

Great job vetting there guys.

You did vett the guy, right?

[ffr]

22. Shady vance strikes again! Great job vetting their guys.

Makes me believe TSF had a key roll in choosing his VP, another racist pig hellbent on shaping government and its workers in their Aryan image.

[Walleye]

4. Do you want Washington? You can't have it. You've got to win elections.

Reminds me of that scene in Casablanca, where Bogart tells the Nazi general “there are some parts of New York. I would advise you not to invade”

[SomedayKindaLove]

11. The movie it reminds me of is The Godfather

Next in line Sonny Corleone (Vance) tips his hand in negotiations with another family (Heritage Foundation) that he favors a deal The Don (Trump) is against (Trump recently called 2025 radical right). If you’ve seen the movie you know what happens next. The Heritage Foundation has promised bloodshed if 2025 isn’t passed. In the meantime Trump might want to avoid outdoor fruit markets.

Bannon has spoken about MAGA beyond Trump. Trump has been great for MAGA, sure. Hell of a kickoff for them. But Bannon’s thinking indicates they are likely going to need someone else to carry the ball over the goal line.

34. The subtitle until very recently was "Burning Down Washington", not "Taking Back"

See reply #32. Someone decided saying that out loud was too much of a giveaway.

[Doodley]

5. Project 2025 is a noose around Trump's neck, and his own hangman is JD Vance!

Oops. And there goes Elon.

[Hugin]

10. Anyone care to speculate on the ratio of the fonts?

I say it’s 10:1 Trump to Vance.

Also, is that a 737 Max? Asking for a friend.

13. It looks as if Vance is paying his own way.

Uh, well, someone is paying his way. I base this assumption on the fact that the “Vance” doesn’t appear to be lick-n-stick in this photo.

[yardwork]

19. It's not even the same font.

Looks like somebody drew Vance on the plane with a sharpie.

[LudwigPastorius]

23. It's probably one of those vinyl signs.

It can be easily peeled off and replaced when Trump decides he needs to go with Stefanik to try and claw back some of the women’s vote.

[dalton99a]

25. .

[Hugin]

27. Ha!

Granted, it does look like an afterthought.

[moonscape]

7. With all the traction awareness of Project 2025

… is getting, I wonder if Vance’s forward will be replaced, if he’s even still around.

Dawn’s Early Light blazes a promising path for the American people to take back their country. Chapter by chapter, it identifies institutions that conservatives need to build, others that we need to take back, and more still that are too corrupt to save: Ivy League colleges, the FBI, the New York Times, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the Department of Education, BlackRock, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the National Endowment for Democracy, to name a few.

[Doodley]

8. Here it is on the description of the book: Scrap New York Times! Scrap education dept, private companies, charitable

foundations, FBI, organizations to promote health and global democracy. Trump can't separate himself from this. It is pure fascism.

14. Sadly the MAGA cult will love this.

"Taking Back Washington to Save America" is what they think they're doing in their delusional minds.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

15. JD Vance says Project 2025 is "essential". That's the counter to Project 2025 deflection. . . . . . . nt

[Javaman]

17. aka the right wing religious nut jobs are banking on the orange asshole croaking if he gets in

then their boy vance runs the nation into the ground with their project 2035 bullshit.

[flying_wahini]

18. Well Kevin DID say that he and JD were longtime good buddies.

[MontanaMama]

20. The Felonious Rapist's VP pick wrote the forward to

a book about Project 2025 and supports it wholeheartedly but he himself knows nothing about said project...yeah that sounds legit...

[Rocknation]

21. Well, if Trump DIDN'T know about Vance's connection to Agenda 2025, he SHOULD have

And whether that's due to either hiring incompetent staffers or age-related cognitive decline, the only recourse is for Trump drop out of race if only to preserve the reputation of his political party...


Rocknation

[HighFired49]

29. I would bet that

Trump knew about Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation, and Vance's connection to all of it. I wouldn't be surprised if he did exactly as you said, but has nothing to do with reputation as much as how much $ is involved. Although, it would save everyone a bunch of $ if the Orange Idiot just croaked. As stated above, he better watch his back.

[SunSeeker]

24. In his Forward, Vance tells conservatives to "load the muskets."

I assume Vance wrote this before Trump got shot at by a Republican....

26. Ha!

Vance's foreword reminds me of Homer's Revenge List.

[muriel_volestrangler]

32. Hmm - they can't decide on "Taking Back Washington" or "Burning Down Washington" for the subtitle

Exhibit #1: the amazon URL uses "Dawns-Early-Light-Burning-Washington-ebook"
Exhibit #2: Harper Collins publisher: https://www.harpercollins.com/products/dawns-early-light-kevin-roberts?variant=41585944526882 "Burning Down Washington"
Exhibit #3: a bookseller: https://www.parnassusbooks.net/book/9798874798840

Exhibit #4:

When the book first became available for preorder on June 19, Vance promoted it on X, writing, “I was thrilled to write the foreword for this incredible book, which contains a bold new vision for the future of conservatism in America.”

On the Amazon page for Dawn’s Early Light, the subtitle reads, “Taking Back Washington to Save America,” but an archived version of the page from June 19 indicates it was initially “Burning Down Washington to Save America.”

Inflammatory language in the blurb has also apparently been tamped down.

A sentence on the archived page that says the book “blazes a warpath for the American people to take back their country” now says it “blazes a promising path.” Another fiery sentence on the archived page read, “Just as a controlled burn preserves the longevity of a forest, conservatives need to burn down these institutions [the FBI, The New York Times, the Department of Education, etc.] if we’re to preserve the American Way of life.” It now says that those institutions “need to be dissolved if the American way of life is to be passed down to future generations.”

Someone worked out that the party that broke into and trashed the Capitol in 2021, threatening lawmakers and attempting a coup (after Giuliani suggested "trial by combat" ) shouldn't be saying the "burn it down" bit out loud?

[Cha]

33. lol Of Course he did.
