Trump Took Private Flight with Project 2025 Leader

August 7, 2024 · 6:27 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Donald Trump has repeatedly denied knowing about the Project 2025 policy blueprint or the people behind it,” the Washington Post reports.

“But in April 2022, Trump shared a 45-minute private flight with Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, according to people familiar with the trip, plane-tracking data and a photograph from on board the plane, which has not been previously reported. They flew together to a Heritage conference where Trump delivered a keynote address that gestured to Heritage’s forthcoming policy proposals.”

Said Trump: “They’re going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do.”
