The right-wing agenda gets less popular the more voters learn about it, a new poll shows.

New polling out on Tuesday suggests that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s best hope for Project 2025, the far-right policy agenda that at least 140 of his former administration officials helped craft, was that most Americans would remain unfamiliar with it.

Over the past month, though, a growing number of voters have learned more about the 900-page plan spearheaded by the right-wing Heritage Foundation—and public opinion of the agenda has plummeted as it’s become more widely known.

Just 11% of people polled viewed the agenda favorably, while 43% had unfavorable views—a 24-point increase since June.

          Are you guys talking about Trump’s Project 2025? I’ve heard a lot of bad things about Trump’s 2025 project.

            Yeah, a lot of people are saying it. Smart people. Trump’s Project 2025 would be a disaster.
