Project 2025 was written by the heritage foundation, a conservative think tank. It’s not a campaign manifesto
I know but it's still representative of Trump's voters mindset. And that's the mindset I see on X for example.

That's a coincidence. Not every Trump voter is conservative. No one is voting for Trump because of project 2025
I think I skimmed it once but don't remember the details

It doesn't has to be everyone, just enough of them. The same happened with Macri here. I didn't voted for him because I was a conservative. Yet the movement got defined by the ones who do are. What's the compass of the ones that don't fall in that category? So far I see, none, and that's the reason they lack representation in a viable alternative. I personally was saved by the movement others created, so it's not a moral judgment, but I'm just pointing to a void that will ensure pervasive bi-partidist political crisis.

A political party is a coalition of various groups.
A candidate tries to build a coalition of voters with a unifying simple message such as build a wall or no new taxes.

Trump won in 2016 by emphasizing a border wall (Mexico).
His emphasis this year should be inflation and immigration.
Most voters are single issue voters, i.e. one issue trumps all other issues
