I attended cpac and learned a lot about the state of the Republican party. Many people highly resent Romney’s timing and comments about Trump. There was lots of resentment toward Romney at cpac. The people who already voted and support Trump were very upset. Also, when Cruz was introduced many Trump supporters walked out. There were over 10,000 people there this year. Lots of those people were young conservatives. Someone is bringing lots of new people into the Republican Party and it isn’t Romney.
I thought it was a huge mistake for Trump not to attend CPAC
