The Keynote ( Friday 7:30PM) speaker has always been Michael Reagan. Milo had been scheduled to be just another speaker — sometime during daytime on Thurs, Fri, or Sat.

And, of course, Rush’s 2009 CPAC speech:

Didn’t you get the memo? The New FReepers are saying that not even president Trump is doing what the great Milo is doing for our kids on college campuses. In fact, no conservative is - so they are praising him as a great white role model.

Like it or not, folks like Milo are doing good work bring new people to the Republican party. Letting them know that just because you happen to be attracted to your own sex you can still be for small government and personal freedoms.
New blood is important in a political party and without people like Milo, the party will continue to gray and shrink

I’d like to get Sodom and Gommorah’s impression on that sentiment.

Oh wait, God destroyed them with fire and brimstone.

“Like it or not, folks like Milo are doing good work bring new people to the Republican party”

Do you realize that if everyone were a republican, it would be exactly the same party as if everyone were a democrat?

No, we don’t want ‘folks like Milo” and the new people he brings.

You do realize President Trump is who brought Milo and folks like him into the Republican party.

“You do realize President Trump is who brought Milo and folks like him into the Republican party.”

“folks”; you people keep using that term when you’re trying to portray them as perfectly normal conservatives. He’s a homosexual. He’s an in-your-face homosexual. What is your motive?

My motive is simply to try to get you to open your eyes.

People like Milo have a right to support President Trump and his agenda.

As do inner city blacks and gangbangers and lesbians and any other fringe group you might think below your notice or standards.

Each of those people bring more people into the tent. Their support is not to be dismissed but rather appreciated.

White Baptist Homophobic men did not elect President Trump. There are not enough, and there are not enough to sustain his support and help him accomplish what he is trying to do.

There are many whose lifestyle I do not support. That does not mean I would deny them when they offer to stand shoulder to shoulder with me in battle. That would be incredibly short sighted and stupid.

Milo may be a bit extreme for some people but guess what? All sorts of different people follow and like Milo. Warts and all. Be he is red pulling the hell out of folks that wouldn’t otherwise give our political views a chance. We need new blood, diversity and lastly more voters in our camp.
