CPAC ‏@CPAC

Very disappointed @realDonaldTrump has decided at the last minute to drop out of #CPAC -- his choice sends a clear message to conservatives.

I'm not intending for what I'm about to say as being anti-Trump. But I find it interesting the way people are swarming to Trump, like so many on the left did with Obama back in 2008. I recall friends and family swooning over their intention to vote for Obama, regardless of the truth about his background, his connections, everything about him that threw up red flags all over the place of how bad he would be for the country. But none of it, none of those red flags mattered one bit. People got on the Obama bandwagon and had no intention of getting off.

Here we are now, the same phenomena happening with Donald Trump. People don't care that he's not conservative, they don't care about any of his flip-flopping, don't care about his "values" - nothing at all about Trump's red flags are going to change their minds. It's like Trump said, he could shoot somebody and not lose his voters (or some such similar comment).

This is not an attack on Trump, it's just an observation that I find to be quite real and instructional. Donald Trump is not my first choice, nor my second (who is out of the race), but if it came down to him vs. Clinton, you can bet that on my life, I'll vote for him over her.

Trump went after BOR then walked away and left him hanging. BOR was “what did I do??”

THAT was funny!

There is nothing conservative about Trump. Did you hear the things he said last night? When he praised Rubio for working with the dems on gang of 8? When he clearly said “they will follow my orders” referring to the military committing war crimes by torturing and killing civilians on the battle field? (PS - they won’t). Or his willingness to negotiate on immigration or declaring we need high tech H1B visas?

Then you didn’t see O’Reilly step up on some kind of box just prior to the interview. It was kind of weird.

Wait, Trump’s a conservative? I thought he was a moderate at best.

What was funny was Melania burning holes with her eyes right straight through O’Reilly. At the conclusion of the interview BOR made a forlorn wave at Melania then BOR turned and got the hell outta there as fast as he could!

And did you notice? BOR conducted the Trump interview almost entirely with his profile presented to the camera. I cannot tell a lie, BOR is literally: A PINHEAD!

I’m with you.

Other than a small handful, CPAC has become a GOPe operation for quite some time. Isn’t that where the Mittster claimed he was “severely conservative?”

The last great thing I think about, with regards to CPAC, was it was Andrew Breitbart’s last public speech in 2012, introduced by the great Sonnie Johnson.

Once I learned that Rubio’s people were going to be allowed to organize some “thing” for DJT’s speech (we allow organized protest events at CPAC now? Where was I when that started? We’re not liberals!) and Glenn Beck, the nut, said that his closing speech would probably ensure that he would never be invited to CPAC again...I said, WTF?

Why the hell should he attend? It sounds like a collection of nuts, like the DU thing they hold every year.

I hope he takes it easy and spends the time with his family.

"There is nothing intelligent about CPAC. It is a bunch of RINOs GOPe open border squish."

Such a bunch of fickle people who inhabit FR now. I can remember when most here loved it when Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh and some others attended it. Now they are against most of these.

"I bet Ivanka is having her baby."

Yes a couple of days ago she said it was either 2 or 3 days away. I think you nailed it. A little R & R to bond with the latest Grandchild...

Give me a break. At least two of Trump’s children he praises constantly spoke out in favor of same-sex marriage. Trump told Howard Stern he opposes it but “could change his mind.” Trump let a transsexual compete in his beauty pageant. And he said he’s never asked forgiveness from God.

Trump has New York values. Even in all the election exit polls, almost no one voting says they think Trump shares their values, even when they vote for him.

Rush Limbaugh has also declined.
