At the same time there’s a pretense in the media that Trump voters (who might be 100 as large in numbers) automatically belong to either of those categories.
This* seems obviously false. Do you have any evidence for this?
For instance, 81% of white Evangelicals voted for Trump. From my background in that community and many discussions with current members, I can tell you there are many reasons they voted for Trump...almost none of them overlap with anything I know of the neoreactionary or alt-right movements.
Edit - The idea there is a “pretense in the media seems as false as the claim itself. Outlets I watch/read often note the Trump constituency is diverse.

Given that you are not referencing any media article I don’t see how “for instance” makes sense here.
But you are right that I have overstated the case, I likely have red too many articles about Milo.

It’s Pew’s data, if I recall. It was widely cited after the election.
This was just one instance of many I recall where non-alt-right/NRx types were found to vote for Trump in significant numbers.
