The Democratic Party’s latest plan to win the White House was received as little more than another rebrand with all the players who’ve “been running the party for decades.”
“Nothing new here.”
In recent months, the Democratic National Committee has reportedly been vying to appeal to young, white male voters while maintaining its course toward going off a cliff on the far left of the map. Monday, the New York Times reported that the latest strategy involved pulling a page from the Republican Party playbook, as the usual suspects were involved in launching Project 2029.
Blatantly named after the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 that Democrats attempted to demonize President Donald Trump over throughout the 2024 election cycle, no matter how often he rejected any association, Times national political correspondent Shane Goldmacher emphasized the current internal debate was whether the party’s ideas were its “biggest problem … or its difficulty in selling them.”
“The title is an unsubtle play on Project 2025, the independently produced right-wing agenda that Mr. Trump spent much of last year’s campaign distancing himself from, and much of his first few months back in power executing,” he wrote of the plan set to be rolled out over the next two years.
“Liberals underestimate the power of Trump’s ideas, and that we need better ideas to take on both Trumpism and the G.O.P.,” said admitted autopen-wielder Neera Tanden, who served as staff secretary to then-President Joe Biden before taking charge at the Center for American Progress. “We get wrapped up in his personality. But he puts forward an idea like ‘No tax on tips,’ and that’s an important signifier that he is championing working-class people.”
In addition to Tanden, the Project 2029 advisory board is said to include Third Way founder Jim Kessler, New America Chief Executive Anne-Marie Slaughter, economist Justin Wolfers, former Roosevelt Institute President Felicia Wong, and none other than former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan.
His tenure in the federal government, dating back to his time at the Department of State under Secretary Hillary Clinton during President Barack Obama’s administration, included overseeing the hiring of Iran-sympathizers within the department and at the Pentagon and involvement in shipping cash to the Islamist regime said to have aided in their nuclear program.
Considered “Obama’s Third Eye in the White House” by One America News Network’s Chanel Rion, she went on to make the case that Sullivan “should be investigated for espionage and treason.”
Of course, while conservatives were quick to line up to ridicule the plan from the left, they weren’t alone in challenging it as, Adam Jentleson, former chief of staff for Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D), told the Times amid his own plans to open a think tank dubbed Searchlight, “Developing policies by checking every coalitional box is how we got in this mess in the first place.”
“There is no way to propose the kind of policies the Democratic Party needs to adopt without pissing off some part of the interest-group Borg. And if you’re too afraid to do that, you don’t have what it takes to steer the party in the right direction,” said Jentleson.
Meanwhile, as a consensus determined the left repeatedly attempts to repackage failed policies as something new, many opined that the latest iteration of the strategy was laughable and worth calling for the party to “don’t ever change.”
Exactly! They spent over a year trying to make “Project 2025” a boogey man, but they are basically recycling the name. Just no original thoughts out of the left.

So they’re taking the 2020 strategy that they already enacted, which was so unpopular that it put Republicans in control now, and they’re copying Republicans on their branding.
They’re still the party of failed ideas and no innovation.

*Looks at list of thinkers*
Yeah, that’s the same group of people that’s been running the party for decades. Nothing new here.

So it’s an admission that the Dems are going to lose in the mid-terms?

They just need a new marketing brochure and a good podcast, they’ll be fine!
