It resonates with sober people sure.

But the original Trump crowd does not read this stuff. They have their own informational bubble, and they're honestly not educated enough to have-doubt.

This is not only true of Trump voters though,  it is more or less the same on the Democrat side, with a "slightly lower" percentage. One really must emphasize the "slight."

OK, so Project 2025 turns out to be kind of a hindrance to Trump's campaign — makes sense, as everything in it looks like it comes straight out of a nightmare — but what I don't understand is, if this is what they want to implement but it's obviously nothing any sane voter would ever want, why publish this openly? Why not just use that ultra-vague 20-point campaign and put Project 2025 through when they've already been elected and nothing can stop them anymore? If you want to hijack the presidency and overturn the constitution, why give the people the chance to protest against it? What am I missing here?

They're just talking points.

People vote and die for their "love" of the color blue. That is the nature of the mob. They are peasants. The project 2025 is a marketing spin, and it is what appeals to them.

The democrats talk about things like abortion which is the opposite, they've had ample opportunity over the years to actually codify, but they leave it. Meanwhile let's start more wars and increase military spending, EVERYONE agreed to that, totally, you all voted for this right? Poor people send their kids off to die.

I feel like you're kind of missing the point of my question. I doubt that anything in P25 would be considered "advertising" to even the most hardcore right-wingers (that is, the ones who aren't in office, of course) - and apparently I'm right on this point because even Trump is trying to distance himself from it now. So why would they reveal their hand and risk losig the election rather than get into office first and then just do it anyway once there is no way to stop them?
