This is all a part of Project 2025 brehs.
He’s an idiot, sure—but he’s still on track.
Per GPT:
Here’s the breakdown:
1.
Yes, this aligns with Project 2025 — conditionally.
Project 2025 (Heritage Foundation) outlines an ultra-restrictionist immigration policy:
- Mass deportations
- End of birthright citizenship
- Militarized enforcement
- Reclassification of immigrants as national security threats
But it also emphasizes a “presidential personnel strategy” — purging bureaucrats and installing loyalists to execute political discretion aggressively but selectively.
So Trump pausing or delaying deportations for economic (especially ag) reasons is not contradictory — it’s tactical. Project 2025 isn’t rigid; it’s a toolbox.
2.
Trump’s statement is not a reversal — it’s a recalibration.
“We can’t take farmers and take all their people and send them back…”
He’s not scrapping deportations. He’s signaling:
- Exempt certain labor sectors
- Possibly push for guest worker programs (not amnesty)
- Shift blame to Biden (“we inherited chaos”)
That aligns with how Trump historically uses “carve-outs” (e.g., DACA waffling, farm labor exceptions in ICE raids).
3.
Strategic contradiction is part of the model.
- Public rhetoric: “Mass deportations!”
- Private governance: “Let’s not tank agriculture/real estate/construction.”
This duality is baked into how Trump governs — loud, chaotic signals masking tailored realpolitik.
Conclusion:
No, this is not against his ultimate plan. It’s how he implements it — a selective enforcement regime that uses fear as policy, but preserves economic dependency on undocumented labor. It’s Project 2025 with fine print.
