Trump is just the tool of the heritage Foundation and the federalist society, project 2025 is their plan. If trump goes against them he'll be out in no time and their true puppet can take his place, Vance.
I don't know about Vance. I don't think he's a true believer, but I could be wrong.
My best read on him is that his agenda is himself (to steal a line from Robert Parker). He's moving whichever way he needs to in order to continue to climb. I have no idea who he'd be as president.
But that's my impression. He could be on board with Project 2025 (as opposed to parroting it).
He worked for Thiel and his political career was funded by Thiel, is friends with him and Curtis Yarvin, who is the originator of many of the things they're doing in project 2025.
He could be in it for himself and using them, but I think he's a believer as he keeps quoting and repeating ideas from Yarvin. I dont think that trump is a believer, he is using them to execute his revenge and gain power.
