    This is the first I’ve heard of sign-up forms. Got a link for that?

    Still, though, there are all those Jan 6’ers who already committed violence for this man once, and they were rewarded for it. I think it’s certainly they will sign up to do violence for him again.

      Here’s a link from a December 2024 article. It mentions how the people behind Project 2025 had an online questionnaire. I remember reading somewhere that I’m addition to being an promoted on maga web sites, the questionnaire was also heavily promoted at Trump’s rallies. I can’t find a link on that now, but it makes perfect sense that’s one of the places where they’d be advertising it and gathering names. It would be a very effective way of reaching those people.

      Pertinent parts of this article, which again was published before he was sworn in, include:

      Among Donald Trump’s many disconcerting campaign promises is a pledge to fire tens of thousands of federal employees and replace them with loyalists.

      Project 2025’s online questionnaire for landing job in the next Trump administration asks about the influences on applicants’ “political philosophy.” According to one alumnus of the first Trump administration, the idea is to “see that you’re listening to Tucker, and not pointing to the Reagan revolution or any George W. Bush stuff.”
