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.
Because the talks of social security not being able to last due to it costing more than it takes in has always been a talking point politically. The line on when it ends just keeps getting extended.
