MAGA plots "100-year plan" to lock in Trump gains

Well-funded MAGA forces close to the White House are preparing a "100-year plan" to try to sustain Trumpism long after President Trump leaves office.

Top executives at the America First Policy Institute tell Axios that the group is scaling up as an incubator for the America First movement beyond Jan. 20, 2029 — promising to proselytize its policies for the next century.

The institute was launched in 2021 — by now-Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, now-Education Secretary Linda McMahon and Larry Kudlow, a Fox Business host who was a first-term Trump official — to help keep Trump's ideas in the political ether after he left office.

Now AFPI is retooling as a shadow White House policy shop — and training ground for future administration talent.

The group — along with America First Works, a sister organization focused on political work and policy advocacy — just moved into a posh new office on Pennsylvania Avenue next to the Willard InterContinental, wedged between the White House and Capitol.

The group is naming an expanded leadership team "to further advance the America First movement and policies that put the American people first."

Trump's current administration is packed with AFPI alumni, including Attorney General Pam Bondi and other officials.
