The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"On a right-wing podcast yesterday, Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts said that Trump’s agenda and Project 2025 have “tremendous” overlap.

Of course it does. That's how it got made. They started with all of Trump's agenda. They then just added some stuff onto that Heritage thinks would be a good idea, so that they could try to lend credibility to their own ideas within MAGA world.

It's like if Justice Democrats (or some other group) took Biden's actual agenda, then added their stuff to it. Say, replacing private health care with a British style NHS, nationalize all the energy companies, and massive reparations to minorities. There would be a ton of overlap with Biden's actual agenda.

But no one would think that Biden supported those other things, just because Justice Democrats said that this was their plan for a second Biden Administration and gave it a name like "Agenda 2025." Because Biden's going to follow his own agenda and ignore JD's additions. JD doesn't have any particular sway with him, and he's not going to nationalize XOM just 'cause they published something that added that into the list of his own ideas.
