During the Democratic National Convention, Democratic Rep. Jason Crow of Colorado, a former Army Ranger, criticized parts of Project 2025, which is seen by conservatives as a potential blueprint for Donald Trump's second term transition. Crow emphasized the importance of strength and security coming from the people and allies, rather than isolationist policies.
Crow highlighted his military service as an Army Ranger to underscore his point that real strength and security are derived from collaboration with allies. He expressed concerns that Project 2025 could lead to the abandonment of troops, veterans, allies, and core principles.
Notably, Crow played a significant role during the US Capitol insurrection by providing comfort to fellow lawmakers. Additionally, he served as a Democratic manager during Trump's first impeachment trial, showcasing his commitment to upholding democratic values and principles.
