I don't think gutting the administrative is the problem with this. You're completly right with the overblown burocracy and the problems with that. But gutting the administrative state and replacing it with loyalists is a problem. Because even if this gives a republican President the executive power he should have anyway, any potential liberal president would be hindered even more with this. So it's not a soltution to the problem. And what would be more on the dictatoroal side of what the project recommends: -restructuring every ministry to such more fitting for far right agendas -giving the president a direct way to influence the decisionmaking of the jurisdiction -reforming the FBI into a taskforce loyal to the president !!! I'm fully aware that all these institutions and organisations are very flawed and need to be reworked. And I know, knowing this and than reading this might make you think 'hell yes! finally some change!'. But keep in mind, that with big restructurings in the government, authoriterians gain power. Just because the project doesn't say 'we want to permanently cancel all elections forever' doesn't mean, that this could not be a stepping stone for exactly that. It is a dangerous thing to change so much so drastically and can easyly give to much power to the wrong people.!!!

IF Not When. Trump has far too much hurdles to overcome and right now, hes more likely to lose, hes been president already, a failed one at that. the Covid pandemic being the biggest blunder of them all that has gotten countless americans killed. he has been making a mockery of himself and the conservative movement for years now since his 2020 electoral defeat and subsequent election denialism, and unwilling to accept it even now, that has turned off far too many republican voters. the overturning of Roe V Wade has done irrepable damage to the republican ticket and election chances, has one of the biggest and most reliable voting blocks of the Democrats engaged now, and with trumps dumbass flip flopping constantly on the abortion issue in a single week, has likely pushed off even conservatives. and the man is only able to invigorate his base of simpletons, while invigorating a even larger base against him, and of that wasnt bad enough, he wouldve had it easier with Biden, but with him out of the race, he has to deal with Kamala Harris now which hes been shown to not know how to tackle. because one of the biggest issues was Age of the candidate, which now is solely applied to Trump, and while, debates tend to sway very few voters, since most have their minds made up on who their voting for, that debate performance from trumps was just......What the actual fuck was that old man yelling at clouds level hysteria??? its clear Trump has seriousl Mental decline in comparison to Kamala Harris.

@@madisonhasson8981 You had postmasters, mail carriers, State Dept employees, clerks, collectors, surveyors, boatswains... it takes a lot of employees to run a government. Jackson's reforms were about eliminating corruption in government by implementing a system of "rotation in office", not specifically about appointing loyalists (something which previous presidents had no problem doing). The reforms partially worked, but also had the effect of replacing a lot of people who knew what they were doing with people who did not, which made the government much less efficient.

To be fair, his reforms were on a federal government with a total budget that was less than 5% of GDP.

A substantial cut could he helpful even with some negative side effects.

[@idcgaming518]

Whether you are a socialist, liberalist, conservative or libertarian, we can all agree that the US government as it stands is significantly bloated, so a reformation of the administrative side of government is a good idea. Mind you, I'm not a US citizen - I'm British. But I do think that the ideas being trialled by the trump-RFK-Gabbard-Musk coalition could potentially act as a trial form of the type of more effective, less bureaucratic forms of democracy and government that might benefit nations like my own.

[@The_Empire_of_Austria-Hungary]

As a fairly left-wing person, I think a lot of the fear around project2025 is that it represents a huge collection of the GOP's largest backers endorsing a program that among other things calls for centralizing control of the entire executive branch (which is most of the the government for better or worse) into the hands of one person, and staffing it with essentially yes-men for the president. Even if Trump completely ignores it, the Heritage Foundation is a titan of Conservative politics and them arguing for something so openly authoritarian is deeply concerning to me, and I would imagine many others on the left.

[@The_Empire_of_Austria-Hungary]

@@program4215 I disagree with the video, since the language used in the Mandate For Leadership (which I know isn’t all of Project25’) is not just about restoring executive power, is is about ensuring that the entire executive branch acts in accordance with the wishes of the president. It advocates for appointing officials based on political loyalty and firing those who are disloyal to the president. Given that the executive branch runs nearly all of the government’s day-to-day activities, having that much power in the hands of one person is in my opinion an incredibly scary prospect, and one which has historically been used to establish authoritarian regimes in places like Russia and Hungary

[@ColinTherac117]

@@The_Empire_of_Austria-Hungary The office of the president is one of the very few positions that the people actually get to vote on. I myself am a city level government bureaucrat, nobody voted for me. Having people like me acting against the will of democratically elected leaders undermines the entire point of a democratically elected republican form of government. Even more so when talking about the president, the one person whose election everyone actually pays attention and is invested in. If anything the president has a much better democratic mandate than most other elected leaders. By comparison the mayor of my city won the election while gaining votes from less than 10% of the population of the city. Given Biden had 80 /300 million support him, even geriatric Joe had a democratic mandate from closer to 30% of the population. It is not right, as a person who got 0 votes, for me to have big impacts on the lives and livelihoods of citizens while standing contrary to the will of the president.

[@zachhecita]

​@@The_Empire_of_Austria-Hungary I understand your concern, but, as I understand it, the president _is_ the executive branch, in the same way that the Supreme Court is the judicial branch or Congress is the legislative branch. If none of the auxiliaries and departments within the executive branch reflected the will of the presidency, what is the point of electing a president? He would just be a figure head. Empowering the President to do the job the people elected him to do is quintessentially democratic. Of course, there is always the possibility that these powers bestowed upon the president may be perverted and abused, but I don't think the president would be able to introduce an authoritarian regime based on Project 2025's recommendations. Moreover, the threat of authoritarianism is inherent to a democracy. Plato believed that was the natural course of democratic states. Democracies are paradoxical, in a sense, for limits to freedoms are the best way to preserve freedom. This means criticism against Project 2025 have to be better than some vague insinuations of authoritarianism. We could say that about many laws. What I'm getting at is that we are already living under an antidemocratic state. This notion that the administrative state isn't already partisan - nonsense. It's standard practice to appoint people because of political loyalty. The difference is that Project 2025 called it what it is. Reclassifying these positions won't make them more partisan. It would actually limit them. A Republican administration would be greatly bolstered by a Republican administrative state, but that would hold true for a Democratic president as well. Once a new president is elected, he will be able bring in his people. Therefore, no appointee should get too comfortable, as he can be easily replaced by the next election cycle.

The main problem I see with the Project as a whole is that it is just further power-lever pushing obfuscation of the fact that our failing academics, cultural degeneracy into decadence, growing lack of critical thought, economic and philisophical illiteracy, and a culture of back-patting conformity has lead to a competency crisis that makes any attempt at Democratic-Republican government futile. We have furnished a society so antithetical to true meritocracy, that anything short of massive privatization and decentralization of civil services is just spitting in the ocean, whatever group 1 does in rearranging power or expanding it for ideological purposes will be abused by group 2, and viceversa. Furthermore, in our governments evolution into a Lovercraftian entity of endless beauracracy and authority; the cracks in democracy have come to light - mob rule over ones rights and over the power of a strong central state is blatantly immoral and has gotten more so every decade, the Founders would roll in their graves if they saw 21st century America.

The problem I have here is not with who gets the power, or why, it is that the power exists at all.

But the problem with your narrative is the politicization of the bureaucracy achieves the exact opposite of meritocracy. The entire point of civil service reform was that positions should be given based on merit rather than patronage. This specific policy will have a noticeably disastrous effect on corruption and competence in the civil service in the long term (if not the short term). Reducing the size of the civil service is different from politicizing it.

I mean, as an ardent, "liberal extremist", I'm majorly concerned about this not because I like the administrative state. I'm completely opposed because the current Republican party has demonstrated time and again they are dedicated to institute policies that are wildly unpopular, corrupt, and harmful to the core rights we have enshrined in the Constitution. So simply removing administrative obstacles (which should be done) without also instituting other protections for american's rights is wildly terrifying. The way I see it is this. There are two drivers fighting for control of a run-away train carrying high explosives and headed straight for a heavily populated town. Both drivers are often obnoxious and dishonest and incompetent. But one driver has recently gone into a psychotic episode, and completely disabled the wheel breaks in his most recent turn as conductor. Now, the only thing slowing the train down are engine breaks and the psychotic driver is screaming that they need to stop using the engine breaks because it's bad for the train engine to use those in the long run. Yes, the administrative state is slowing down both parties' ability to quickly enact their agendas. Yes, that was never the intended, long-term purpose of administrative agencies. But until we get the wheel breaks enabled again (robust protections for the rights of the American people), the fact that one of the conductors is trying to remove that stop-gap altogether is wildly concerning for me. TLDR; I'd rather both parties be less effective until we have institutional protections in place to preserve our core, constitutional rights than engage with a much-needed administrative reform only for a party which has recently been frothing at the mouth to strip away American's rights to then have even less stopping them from doing so.

[@michaeldaemon3926]

I think that's a very reasonable take on things. Do you have any recommendations for what you would like to see done in order to protect our constitutional rights? It does at times appear as though we are just in an endless tug of war for our rights, and having strong protections of those rights would do a lot to mollify both parties. Personally, I also would really like to keep the government inefficient until we actually have something like this in place as well.

Independently of political ideology, making easier to change the administration so the government can implement more measures when they win in a very polarized society as ours nowadays seems a really bad idea; most of politicians currently are more of media figures than actually administrators, and most of them only stay in charge for 4 years, so image every four years changing the whole administration to change policies according to your campaign promises, and then subverting that during next term with a new president. That's what happens in Spain in some public branches every four years with the elections and only results in more politization of public services and less productivity since policies and actions are continuingly reversed. I am not trying to advocate for the absolute opposite of not being able to fire a genuinely bad administrator, but my experience living in the US and working for a public / state position is that is not hard as it seems, at least compared to other countries where nepotism is much more prevalent.

I would say that the idea of letting the executive aka the government fire/appoint public sector employees at will is bogus. Even if allowed for meritocratic reasons, it opens the door to political appointments. A politician could just promise people jobs in the public sector for votes and if he wins he could just fire everyone, put his lackies, friends and favourites in any position. Rather than meritocracy, it allows for even greater government incompetence. In Greece (from which I am), for a 100 every time a new government was elected people would lose their jobs and be replaced by political appointees leading to both administrative incompetence and instability. It poisoned our politics and made it inherently corrupt, allowing for politicians to buy votes. Those employed by the executive should have their jobs protected and instead of letting a president from either party to fire them would just make the executive worse if not weaker. Measures should be taken to ensure that these permanent employees remain productive like you said was the case before Carter. Project 2025 poses an indirect threat to America rather than a direct one, unless Trump actually appoints competent lackies that will help him bypass checks and balances more effectively.

This was a very good review and gave me a perspective I haven’t really thought about. How would you see a Trump presidency helping the working class?

[@MonsieurDean]

I suppose it would depend upon the industry, but one of the obvious spot will be taxation. A streamlining of the administrative state has the potential to save working-class Americans hundreds of dollars every year. The thing with taxes is that the middle and lower class shoulders a lot more of the burden now than it used to, so any cut to taxes is gonna be a boost. Trump's protectionist tariffs are a double edged sword because in the short term this is gonna mean prices will go up, but we'll also see a lot more jobs open up; long-term is where the real gains are made, because this will give us much more independence in our production of essential goods, and eventually provide us products of higher quality at a lower cost, with all proceeds circulating back into the U.S, which is gonna lighten our debt load, which means, again, fewer taxes to service that debt. Trump's proposal of establishing a bi-metal standard would significantly curb inflation, and eventually see the buying power of the dollar rise (I'm not sure how this would look in the short term given the potential rise in costs on account of tariffs, but stronger money is always a plus). Although a bit more dependent on where you are in life, Trump has also proposed a totally free online college and certification system to help younger Americans acquire the skills and credentials necessary to advance to higher-paying jobs.
