- What is Donald Trump's relationship to Project 2025?
- While many linked Project 2025 to Donald Trump's campaign, Trump distanced himself, stating he was unfamiliar with its contents and disagreed with some of its proposals. A spokesperson for the project also confirmed it does not represent any candidate or campaign.
- What are some of the key policy proposals in Project 2025?

- What are the core principles guiding Project 2025's policy recommendations?
- Project 2025's core principles include securing the border, weakening the federal government, boosting domestic energy production, cutting government spending, and increasing accountability for federal bureaucrats. It also promotes education reform focused on parental and local control.
- What organizations and individuals are involved in Project 2025, and what are their roles?
- The Heritage Foundation, a conservative organization, spearheaded Project 2025, aiming to recruit and train thousands of conservative individuals for federal government roles. The project's funding and operational aspects raise questions about its independence from political campaigns.
