Leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump abruptly canceled his scheduled speech at CPAC Saturday morning as his campaign announced an appearance in Wichita, Kansas the day of that state’s caucus.
Likely factoring into Trump’s decision was a planned protest walkout during his speech at CPAC and the need to have a campaign presence in Kansas.
The organizer of the walkout, William Temple, who parades around CPAC in colonial garb, told BizPacReview he expected one thousand CPAC attendees to participate in the Trump walkout.
Temple organized a similar walkout last year during Jeb Bush’s speech at CPAC that drew around 300 protesters.

I expect Trump has staff embedded in all campaigns. I sure hope he does!
Why would your post be blocked?
He wants to keep people studying brain cancer.
I guess he’s a liberal democrat like Joe Biden.
I had cpac once. Caught it from some catfish. Took an ointment to relieve.
It’s a convention for conservatives, dude.
It’s amazing, when we oppose Trump, we get accused of being purists. Then you assign a total purity test to a gathering of 1000s of conservatives. If just one of them isn’t perfectly conservative, the whole group is completely tainted and must be shunned.
Get a grip on reality. Try to regurgitate that Trump Kool-Aid before it eats away your insides completely.
No, not the "only reason" -- not even the main reason.
We support Mr. Trump because he's a strong man, a man on a white horse, our Bonaparte.
Moreover, as proof of Mr. Trump's strength and power, we have the word of his future friend, President Putin. Policies and their frequent shifts have no bearing. An image of strength and power is what counts.
Riiight, I’m sure all the cheap, foreign-born IS/IT and programmers Zuckerberg and the rest of Silicon Valley hires as they shun U.S.-born workers will agree with that assessment.
If the CPAC Bunch were to walk out, then we might as well call them the GOPe Bunch.
Bummer - they USED TO represent CONSERVATIVE values, but now they’re just another OPEN BORDERS operation.
Of course he did.
National Socialist don’t much like Conservative conferences.
They represent the grifter branch of the GOP anymore.
I have seen idiots walk out in mass (if you could call 12 people that) at great concerts to go blow a doob
But he is owned by Goldman Sacks. How do you get more establishment than that?
Sorry, all of our candidates have their stupid flaws and issues.
At least they are not Hillary, she is all flaw and issue! Wonder where her broom went?
Have fun with that tomorrow if he grabs kansas and wins all the states on super saturday.
Looks like Ted hit a nerve LOL
Sessions walked out on Cruz.... Actually he RAN away from Cruz.... Just sayin...
I think that’s worth more than 300 establishment backers walking out on Trump
Thank you
There wasn’t a single vote to be had at cpac and it was set up for dirty tricks. Why do that when kansas is there to win and he was treated like crap all week.
