The right-wing agenda gets less popular the more voters learn about it, a new poll shows.
New polling out on Tuesday suggests that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s best hope for Project 2025, the far-right policy agenda that at least 140 of his former administration officials helped craft, was that most Americans would remain unfamiliar with it.
Over the past month, though, a growing number of voters have learned more about the 900-page plan spearheaded by the right-wing Heritage Foundation—and public opinion of the agenda has plummeted as it’s become more widely known.
…
Just 11% of people polled viewed the agenda favorably, while 43% had unfavorable views—a 24-point increase since June.
The Right doesn’t care if most people like it. It’s not for most people - fascism never is.
They care about taking power and enacting their plans. Public opinion’s got nothing to do with it
They care if it keeps their guy from getting elected, though
Their guy getting elected depends on the electoral college, which only loosely represents the popular vote. They don’t need MOST people to like their plans. They need most people in certain districts in certain states.
