WATCH: Hauling large copy of Project 2025, Michigan state Sen. McMorrow speaks at 2024 DNC
Michigan state Sen. Mallory McMorrow tried to throw the book at Donald Trump — literally hoisting an oversized copy of “Project 2025” onto the lectern and quoting from portions of it.
It was prop comedy on one of the highest political stages.

“So we read it,” McMorrow said. “Whatever you think it might be, it is so much worse.”
Trump, the former president, has publicly disavowed any interest in the policies outlined in Project 2025, but it’s a blueprint for a second Trump term that was put together by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.
McMorrow said the ideas in the text would enable Trump to be a dictator who could fire civil servants and use the Justice Department to investigate political opponents.
