Vice President Harris said in a new interview that former President Trump’s “DNA is all over” Project 2025.
“As you know, I am a former prosecutor; his DNA is all over it,” Harris said in the interview with CBS News’s Norah O’Donnell broadcast on “CBS Sunday Morning.”
“All over it. His running mate wrote the forward to the book of the author of Project 2025; I believe Donald Trump’s name appears at least 300 times in Project 2025, and it is a blueprint, a detailed blueprint that is about the danger and the detail of what Donald Trump and his allies plan if he is in the White House again.”
The former president has attempted to distance himself from Project 2025, a 900-page “governing agenda” describing conservative aims in case a Republican captures the White House in November. Project 2025 also comes from The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.
“I know nothing about Project 2025. I have not seen it, have no idea who is in charge of it, and, unlike our very well-received Republican Platform, had nothing to do with it,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social in July.
Despite Trump trying to create space between himself and Project 2025, contributors to the plan include ex-Trump administration officials Ben Carson and Ken Cuccinelli, and it is also headed up by former Trump administration official Paul Dans. CNN also reported in July that it had found a minimum of 140 people who had been part of the Trump administration were involved in Project 2025.
During her interview with O’Donnell, Harris said to “Google Project 2025, about what he thinks about Social Security, and why he thinks it is nothing that should be supported … his intentions to cut Medicare and Medicare benefits, his intention — look again at Project 2025, to repeal the $35 a month cap on insulin that we have put in place.”
There are now less than two weeks until Election Day, with Vice President Harris leading former President Trump by only 0.6 percent in an average of polls from The Hill/Decision Desk HQ.
The Hill has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.
