'You Weirdo!':'Daily Show' Exposes Cringiest Trump Allies Behind Project 2025

Daily Show correspondent Desi Lydic isnt buying Donald Trump s claim that he doesnt know anything about Project 2025 , the far-right policy documents expected to guide his administration should he win the election. 

The last time Trump said, I dont know anything about that, he was talking about Stormy Daniels, Lydic said on Wednesday. So did Trump fuck Project 2025?

Twenty-six of the 39 speakers in leaked Project 2025 training videos obtained by ProPublica  have worked for Trump, in many cases in senior roles in his administration. 

In one video the outlet reported on over the weekend, its explained that no one convicted of a crime would be able to serve in the federal government under the Project 2025 plan, specifically calling out fraud and tax evasion as showing lack of moral character. Debt and bankruptcy could also be deal-breakers, according to the footage.

You might wanna run this up the chain to the boss, because its starting to feel personal, Lydic said. No tax evasion , no bankruptcies , no weird hairstyles, no one who had a cameo in Home Alone 2, and definitely, definitely nobody who constantly brings up Hannibal Lecter like its a real person. 

Lydic said the videos arent helping Republicans beat the weird allegations. In one clip, Katie Sullivan a former Justice Department official under Trump introduces herself as just a normal American woman. 

Are you sure? Lydic asked. Now that you said it, Im wondering. Hi, Im just a normal American woman, wearing normal woman skin, as we normal women do.

In another, Bethany Kozma who worked for Trump in the U.S. Agency for International Development attempts to address environmental issues. 

When I think of climate change, I immediately think of population control, dont you? Kozma said in the video. 

No! Lydic fired back. No, I dont. I dont think of population control when I think of climate change, you weirdo. I think of forest fires and Smokey Bear and his tight little bear bod, like a normal American woman.
