‘Elected by no one’: ‘Reaganland’ author on how the Heritage Foundation wields power

Project 2025 is the Heritage Foundation’s 9th iteration of “The Mandate for Leadership” - a detailed map of policy recommendations first provided to Ronald Reagan in 1981. While this newest edition pushes further to the right than any version that came before it, the evolution also highlights The Heritage Foundation's long-game strategy. It has been pursuing many of the same goals for decades. Members of the conservative think-tank have openly talked about the long-term plans of their movement - making it clear that they’re still thinking three, four presidential elections down the line. “In a lot of ways, Donald Trump is that strong right arm. You know, he wants to please the conservative movement. And we saw with his judicial appointees, that he was just perfectly willing to kind of pass on what the right-wing activist world, elected by no one, told him to do.”
