ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE:

Is Kamala Harris Guilty of Her Own “Project 2025”? | Daily Persuasion with Josh Lisec Ep. 14

What if the biggest threat to Kamala Harris…is Kamala Harris?

In Episode 14 of Daily Persuasion with Josh Lisec, titled “Kamala’s Project 2025 Mistake”, Lisec breaks down the political jiu-jitsu playing out before our eyes: how Project 2025 became the left’s favorite boogeyman—and how Kamala’s attempt to weaponize it may have just backfired spectacularly.

Project 2025, the 900-page policy wishlist published by the Heritage Foundation, was never authored by Donald J. Trump nor sanctioned by his campaign. And yet, Democrats—first Biden, now Harris—have clung to it like gospel, declaring it Trump’s secret plan to end democracy. As Lisec points out, this manufactured narrative has spiraled into a full-blown conspiracy theory: the idea that Project 2025 is a shadow document intended to strip away civil liberties, consolidate power, and usher in authoritarian rule.

The twist? Kamala Harris just made the same mistake she’s accusing Trump of.

In a genius rhetorical counterpunch, Trump supporters and conservative influencers have assembled Kamala’s Project 2025—a list-style infographic of radical policy positions that Harris herself has advocated over the years. Everything from gun confiscation to blanket amnesty for illegal immigrants has been documented with her own words and past interviews. What once looked like a clever attack strategy has turned into a mirror—reflecting back onto Kamala the very same accusations she hurled at Trump.

In this episode, Lisec unpacks the persuasion behind this flip. Why does it work? What can we learn from it? And how can business owners, marketers, and political operators alike apply this principle?

Lisec explains that the original Project 2025 was a mishmash of ideas from social conservatives, think tank contributors, and neoconservatives—not a singular manifesto. Trump distanced himself early on, pointing instead to his official Agenda 47, which focuses squarely on immigration, the economy, and healthcare—issues that resonate across party lines. Kamala, however, failed to understand the optics and took the bait.

By framing Kamala’s Project 2025 with her own history—her own words—the right has effectively neutralized the attack. And as Lisec points out, if you’re not attacking, you’re losing. The most powerful defense in politics and persuasion is strategic offense—especially when you flip the opponent’s narrative on its head.

Lisec dives deep into this brilliant reversal, highlighting how the left’s favorite talking point—Project 2025—has now become their Achilles' heel. When Kamala Harris accuses her opponent of radical plans, only to be confronted by her own words, the persuasion becomes irresistible. Voters don’t need to believe in conspiracy theories when the evidence comes straight from the Vice President’s own speeches, interviews, and rallies.

So what does this all mean for the next six weeks leading up to the election?

It means Project 2025 is no longer just a conservative policy wishlist—it’s a rhetorical battlefield. And Kamala’s Project 2025 may do more damage to her platform than the original did to Trump. In fact, Lisec argues, this entire narrative pivot is a masterclass in political persuasion.

Tune into Episode 14 of Daily Persuasion with Josh Lisec to discover how persuasion works in real time—and how one Project 2025 mistake could reshape the political conversation. Lisec’s insights into rhetoric, strategy, and influence go beyond politics, offering real-world lessons for anyone who wants to turn criticism into opportunity.
