Ferguson and other WA Democrats prepare for new era of showdowns with Trump
After suing the Trump administration nearly 100 times as attorney general, Gov.-elect Bob Ferguson has an idea of what the next four years could look like.
Ferguson said Thursday he and his team have spent the last year preparing for the prospect of another Trump presidency, something that became a reality this week when Donald Trump was elected to a second term.
“We’re not just waking up yesterday thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, there’s a Trump administration coming. We need to get ready for it,’” Ferguson told reporters during a press conference. “There has been a lot of work for many, many months from my team to prepare for this.”
That preparation has included reading the entirety of Project 2025 – an almost 1,000-page national conservative policy playbook embraced by Trump supporters, talking to other Democratic attorneys general, and quickly catching up his successor, Nick Brown, who won his election this week.
