Trump no longer distancing himself from Project 2025 as he uses shutdown to further pursue its goals

NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump is openly embracing the conservative blueprint he desperately tried to distance himself from during the 2024 campaign, as one of its architects works to use the government shutdown to accelerate his goals of slashing the size of the federal workforce and punishing Democratic states.

In a post on his Truth Social site Thursday morning, Trump announced he would be meeting with his budget chief, “Russ Vought, he of PROJECT 2025 Fame, to determine which of the many Democrat Agencies, most of which are a political SCAM, he recommends to be cut, and whether or not those cuts will be temporary or permanent.”

The comments represented a dramatic about-face for Trump, who spent much of last year denouncing Project 2025, The Heritage Foundation’s massive proposed overhaul of the federal government, which was drafted by many of his longtime allies and current and former administration officials.

Because, fuck you.

For the past 49 days, the National Guard has occupied the nation’s capital. President Trump’s order of the guard to Washington, initially announced as a short-term move to fight crime, has turned into a mandate for near-indefinite presence. Guard members from other states assigned to Joint Task Force-D.C. are now rotating through assignments, akin to an overseas mission. On Monday, Trump announced 100 National Guard troops would be sent to Chicago. As Trump made clear in his pep-rally assembly of the military’s generals and admirals on Tuesday, there will be many more deployments to America’s cities to come: “We’re going to straighten them out [kill them] one by one. And this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That’s a war, too.”



GOOD.

40 years passed between Trump's religious advisor raping a child and the advisor going to jail. Libtards prefer to let the law move at its slow and majestic pace rather than speed the punishment up with unusual and violent methods.

Okay. Whatever. Just add this to the list of thousands of lies you've told about Trump over the years.

You're a violent and hateful piece of shit.

You're the reason that Democrats are polling at the lowest approval they ever have.

Y'all can keep talking shit about Trump and his approval rating, but he's 4 points higher than the Republican Party is, and he's 11 points higher than the Democratic Party is in the aggregate.

America is finished with Democrats.

Did you know that the Confederate slave-owners labeled Lincoln as evil? And that the slave-owners designated themselves as good? The slave-owners had proof that Lincoln was evil since he was killing slave-owners. Worse, Lincoln was not popular with the people who nominally supported him.

Abraham Lincoln was not popular during his presidency, especially at the start of the Civil War, with some historians estimating his support to be as low as 25 percent due to the national crisis and his unknown public image. He faced intense criticism from various factions for his policies and perceived inadequacies. While his popularity grew after the war and his assassination, Lincoln's time in office was marked by deep division and widespread revulsion from many Americans.

Doing the right thing is never popular, even with people on your side, let alone those who are absolutely evil, such as slave-owners. And Trumptards.

Bail Out Argentina

The Trump administration got this one right.

By David Frum | October 1, 2025

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/10/argentina-trump-mile
i-bailout/684427
/

Sometimes even the Trump administration acts like a normal American government. The bailout of Argentina is one of those times.

The Trump administration is proposing to lend Argentina up to $20 billion to support its currency on financial markets. The plan is unpopular with Republicans and Democrats alike. Yet at a time when much of U.S. policy seems driven by a perverse hostility to the outside world, assistance to Argentina is a welcome exception that deserves support across the political spectrum.

Yes, the administration’s proposal completely contradicts Donald Trump’s rhetoric of “America First,” but this rhetoric is wrong and self-harming. Yes, the bailout is motivated by Trump’s capricious favoritism. But in this case, Trump has at least chosen an appropriate beneficiary.

Yes, at least one hedge-fund friend of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s stands to benefit. But there are hedge funds on every side of every financial bet, and saying no to the deal will also enrich somebody.

The United States has a big interest in advancing free-market and democratic institutions in the Western hemisphere. We are now in a phase, however, where authoritarian nationalism is gaining ground, from Mexico on southward. At a time when much of Latin America is heading the wrong way, Argentina is progressing toward a more open economy.

Javier Milei came to power in December 2023 promising radical change. Decades of corrupt and authoritarian government interventions had twisted the Argentine economy into a dysfunctional mess. In the year that Milei was elected president, inflation surpassed 211 percent. Impoverished people lived in the streets outside empty dwellings that few could afford to rent. A libertarian economist with little political experience, Milei pledged to let loose a free-market transformation that would put Argentina on the path to monetary stability and sustainable growth.

Milei mostly kept his promise. But along the way, he took a gamble with his management of the exchange rate of Argentina’s troubled currency—not an absurd gamble, but a gamble all the same. That gamble has gone wrong, and this failure now jeopardizes the rest of Milei’s economic agenda. If Milei fails, his failure will discredit market-oriented reformers in every economically troubled country in the Americas and beyond. If Milei succeeds, he will revive economic and political liberalism in a hemisphere where those systems are now in retreat.

Let’s start with Milei’s accomplishments. They are enormous. Just before he entered office, the country’s inflation rate was rising in the double digits every month. Milei has lowered the inflation rate to 2 percent a month—still high, but an astonishing change in the right direction.

Before Milei’s presidency, Argentine real-estate markets were strangled by controls. Landlords would not rent because rents rapidly fell below market values; home-seekers could not buy because the mortgage market had ceased to exist. Now the housing market is reviving, and it’s even possible to get a mortgage in a country where inflation once eliminated all long-term lending.

How did Milei do it? Although he gained renown for being an outlandish showman, his economic ideas are free-market common sense. End rent controls to boost the housing supply. Cut government spending to shrink the budget deficits that drive inflation. Lower tariffs, export taxes, and other barriers to trade. Privatize state assets to make them more efficient and pay down government debt. Milei, a former television pundit with a big mouth and attention-getting hair, is often likened to Trump. Yet their philosophies of government could not be further apart. If anything, Trump’s statism, authoritarianism, and corruption are reminiscent of Juan Perón, Milei’s ideological nemesis.

Milei’s problem—and Argentina’s—is a risk he took along the

What to know about Trump's pitch for $2,000 stimulus checks from tariff revenue

By Jason Lalljee | October 3, 2025

https://www.axios.com/2025/10/03/trump-stimulus-check-tariffs

President Trump has again floated the idea of giving Americans stimulus checks based on revenue from his tariffs.

The big picture: Trump is continuing to promote the revenue from tariffs as they receive pushback from the courts.

Driving the news: Trump said on One America News television network in an interview that aired on Thursday that he is considering offering Americans checks from the revenue, worth somewhere between $1,000 and $2,000.

"We're going to do something, we're looking at something. No. 1, we're paying down debt. Because people have allowed the debt to go crazy," he said.
"We'll pay back debt, but we also might make a distribution to the people, almost like a dividend to the people of America," he added.

Here's what to know:
How much money tariffs are generating

By the numbers: Tariffs are projected to generate more than $400 billion a year in revenue, Axios' Neil Irwin reported this week.

Zoom in: As of June, the U.S. had already collected more than $100 billion in customs revenue since Trump took office, Axios reported this summer.

Most of that, $81.5 billion in total, is from tariffs imposed since Jan. 20.

What we're watching: The tariffs will lower deficits by a combined $4 trillion over the next decade, the Congressional Budget Office said in August, a substantial increase from its last projection from just June.

Yes, but: New tariffs are still being put into effect, collections aren't fully matching what's been imposed and a pending Supreme Court case could end up gutting the program.
What Trump has said about stimulus checks

Catch up quick: Trump has floated the idea of new stimulus checks before.

In July, the president suggested that the government might cons
