John Oliver On A Terrifying Second Trump Term Using Project 2025

Second Trump Term John Oliver

John Oliver: Trump and Project 2025

This episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver was produced when Joe Biden was still the presumptive Democratic candidate for the Presidency.

Since then, Kamala Harris has become the Democratic nominee for President of the United States.

This is an absolutely AMAZING video. Oliver is able to take us through the terrifying reality of a possible second Trump term utilizing Project 2025 but always does it with his unique sense of humor.

It’s just brilliant.

This video has almost 10,000,000 views.

Project 2025, Explained

The ACLU explains just how dangerous Project 2025 would be:

Project 2025 is a federal policy agenda and blueprint for a radical restructuring of the executive branch authored and published by former Trump administration officials in partnership with The Heritage Foundation, a longstanding conservative think tank that opposes abortion and reproductive rights, LGBTQ rights, immigrants’ rights, and racial equity. Project 2025’s largest publication, “Mandate For Leadership,” is a 900-page manual for reorganizing the entire federal government agency by agency to serve a conservative agenda.

Project 2025 includes a long list of extreme policy recommendations touching on nearly every aspect of American life, from immigration and abortion rights, to free speech and racial justice. A number of its recommendations rely on support from the executive branch and from Congress. Many other initiatives are outright unconstitutional.

Trump Plans To Use Violence Against His “Enemies”

Trump has said that he wants to be a dictator and will use violence against anyone who opposes him.

The Purge?

How To Stop Project 2025

Trump has said that if anyone opposes him, he will use violence

Probably the ONLY way to STOP Project 2025 is to vote for Kamala Harris for President of the United States.
