The truth about Project 2025: Will Trump take your birth control away?
Donald Trump has officially been sworn in as the 47th president of the United States of America — and Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” couldn’t be more thrilled.
“Trump is going to overhaul America’s most corrupt institutions and turn them back into institutions that serve the American people. Truly, hopefully, by the grace of God, making America great again,” Stuckey says.
President of the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts, is hopeful as well, and excited that elements of his foundation’s Project 2025 will be coming to fruition — despite the left-wing fearmongering surrounding the set of policy proposals.
“I was not surprised that the radical left overreacted, because that’s what they do, you know, their performance theater about anything that conservatives do that might actually be conservative is guaranteed,” Roberts says.
“What did surprise me, to be completely candid with you Allie, is the scale and scope of their overreaction. And clearly, they thought, particularly at one point in the summer, that this was going to be the Achilles heel for President Trump,” he continues.
And the left is still shaking in their boots.
“They believe that what is in Project 2025 is that you personally are going to go to their house, open their drawer, steal their birth control, and run away. That seems to be like this crazy fear that has been stirred up in a lot of people on the left,” Stuckey says.
While most conservatives aren’t a fan of the left's obsession with sex, abortion, and pregnancy prevention, Robert’s can put their delusional fears to rest.
“Project 2025 is this election cycle’s version of something that Heritage has done since 1980 for President Reagan, and it is just a menu of conservative policies. It’s actually on one level, Allie, really boring. It’s what think tanks and public policy organizations do,” Roberts explains.
“So the advice that I would give, and I really do intend this to be friendly for people who are in the political center or maybe on the political left, is that whatever you’ve heard about Project 2025 is unlikely to be true,” he adds.

Why single women don't vote Republican (and probably never will)
While many Republicans blame Donald Trump for the lack of female support in their party, women’s blue voting patterns began far before his reign.
And Steve Deace has the receipts.
As early as 2004, John Kerry polled at 18+ points more with unmarried women than George Bush, who polled at 10+ points more with married women.
The trend continued with each election up until 2020, with the only exception being Hillary Clinton polling at 2+ points more than Trump with married women and 29+ points more with unmarried women.
“This is the spiritual condition of unmarried women because this is driven all by one particular issue: unmarried women just want to be able to kill their children whenever they want,” Deace explains, adding, “It’s not any more complicated than that.”
And he’s not hopeful it will change.
“There’s really not even much we can do to bridge this gap, frankly. Because what’s the number one most loyal issue voting base in the Republican Party?” Deace asks, “the pro-life base.”
“The more married you are, the more you tend to vote Republican, and the less married you are, the more you tend to vote Democratic,” he continues.
“It’s really the number one dividing line of voting patterns in America.”
