Leftists are assailing the conservative movement's Project 2025 because they know that what they've done to the nation won't stand up to common sense, Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts told Fox News host Will Cain on Monday in a discussion of the outcry.
Amid open panic among some Democrats over President Joe Biden's mental decline, leftist pundits have pushed Project 2025 to the front and center of their national messaging-with many claiming that it's a secret blueprint to turn the United States into a dystopian "Fascist state."
Heritage's Roberts described Project 2025 to Cain as "The most organized set of policy ideas that the conservative movement has ever put together in history," noting that over a hundred organizations contributed.
In the past two months Project 2025 has been the target of campaign ads and social media posts from the Biden-Harris campaign and from liberal journalists and pundits-becoming an anchor point for warnings from the Left about Trump's potential return.
Cain pressed Roberts on whether Trump distanced himself from Project 2025 because the Left "Successfully demonized" the project or because "He has substantively policy disagreements with some of what you've recommended?".
I think if you look at the spending against Project 2025 by the Biden campaign and whatever affiliated super PACs have spent, if you're trying to win a campaign and Project 2025 has become the one thing that the Left can talk about-because they can't defend Biden's record or, frankly, his mental capabilities, [and] I don't say that to be ugly toward him as a person-then you've got to turn to something else.
Roberts also announced that over the next few weeks, The Heritage Foundation would launch a campaign to clear up myths about Project 2025 and "Punch back against the radical Left" along with Trump.
