Paul Dans wants to rejoin Trump's administration

Paul Dans, former head of the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025, expressed a desire to return to the Trump administration despite being ousted due to backlash against the project. He noted that the program is now being implemented successfully. Dans acknowledged that Project 2025 was created as a template for any conservative president, but he sees similarities with Trump's current agenda. He reflected on the project's controversial role in the 2024 election, where it became a major issue. After resigning from Heritage in July, Dans criticized Trump campaign advisers for their handling of the situation. He stated he would be willing to assist Trump again if needed and expressed aspirations to return to public service in the future.
