What is Project 2025 and does Trump believe in it?

Kamal and Camilla speak to the man behind the controversial document: Kevin Roberts.

Kamal and Camilla chat to its president, Kevin Roberts, about the thinking behind Project 2025 and how influential it will be over the next four years of Trump's presidency.
