every so often, TikTok flips me into some kind of A/B test and makes it so most of the videos on my fyp have under 100 views and maybe 3 likes at most. and then TikTok just sucks until they finally put me back on the normal algorithm

Project 2025 to end policy work after Democratic attacks angered Trump
Vice President Harris’s campaign manager, Julie Chavez Rodriguez, said Democrats will not stop talking about Project 2025.
“Hiding the 920-page blueprint from the American people doesn’t make it less real — in fact, it should make voters more concerned about what else Trump and his allies are hiding,” she said in a statement. “Project 2025 is on the ballot because Donald Trump is on the ballot. This is his agenda, written by his allies, for Donald Trump to inflict on our country.”

Project 2025 isn’t going to “end”, because it is literally the agenda of the GOP under Trump and codifies their long term goals. The fact that Trump’s campaign wants no association with Project 2025 is because it’s incredibly popular, not because it isn’t their agenda.
