They’ll have to win the presidency, both houses of Congress and end the filibuster if they want to implement any of these plans. I guess it’s possible but unlikely. They could have done that in the first two years of Trump’s presidency if it really mattered to them. But all they really want is corporate tax cuts.
It’s important to keep news about these plans circulating though. Having a large anti-Trump turnout is the one thing that ensures they never get a chance to implement their agenda.
They’ll have to win the presidency, both houses of Congress and end the filibuster if they want to implement any of these plans.
No they won’t. Trump will do as much as he can through executive orders, backed by a cabinet full of sycophants, a Supreme Court willing to back him up, and various state governments (Most notably, states like Florida and Texas) gleefully willing to march in lockstep. Anything that has to be done through Congress will be done via a pressure campaign of essentially grinding the government to a halt until the Democrats cave in and give them what they want (see the now-shuttered immigration bill that almost got passed as an example), which has been a strategy that has been proven effective for decades.
Their plan is to shutter things at the federal level. Blue states won’t have a say in the matter. Their goal is to shutter agencies like the Department of Education. Their goal is to close DE&I programs at the federal level.
Sure, states can still do things like run a Head Start or fund their school meals programs if they want to. But how many states would be able to without the federal funds that currently support those programs? How many states would be willing to go through the effort? Or even able to?
None of this would need the support of blue states. They can just gut the funding and watch the state level programs shrivel up on their own.
Yes. Because then they can turn the army’s guns on the blue states with impunity. I’m pretty sure it’s why they float the idea among their base; so we hear it too, and it stays in our minds.
And for some reason California isn’t disarming and discharging them. The police there are acting as a hostile occupier opposing democratically decided rules.

Good luck on trying to enforce those orders in Blue states.
They won’t have to.

So, they the want the blue states to secede.
Yes. Because then they can turn the army’s guns on the blue states with impunity. I’m pretty sure it’s why they float the idea among their base; so we hear it too, and it stays in our minds.
police in california are already brazenly violating California state law by sending license plate tracking info to red states. expect more and worse.
And for some reason California isn’t disarming and discharging them. The police there are acting as a hostile occupier opposing democratically decided rules.
Project 2025 details exactly how they intend to do all of that.
