Contributing sentiments towards policy:
85% : The post said: "Trump VP contender JD Vance thanks Project 2025 leaders for their 'incredible work' of creating a plan for Trump to ban abortion nationwide and cut Social Security." Facts First: Both of the Biden campaign posts are false.43% : That Project 2025 policy document barely mentions Social Security, let alone makes significant proposals on the subject.
33% : The full video of Vance's speech to the Heritage Foundation shows that he did not mention Project 2025, abortion, or Social Security at all; the 2023 speech was almost entirely about foreign policy, with a dash of criticism of progressives.
27% : In two social media posts on Tuesday, President Joe Biden's campaign distorted a quote from Republican Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio to inaccurately make it seem as if Vance had been praising a conservative think tank's Project 2025 initiative and expressing support for a nationwide abortion ban and cuts to Social Security.
