The annual Conservative Political Action Conference opens its doors next week, sure to garner its normally outsized attention from the mainstream media. That’s a shame, because CPAC is now only a shadow of its former self.
This event was once a calendar highlight, as people from all factions and all parts of the country gathered to meet, debate, and network. Now, under the leadership of its embattled chairman Matt Schlapp, it has devolved into a MAGA carnival where only one part of the conservative movement is welcome and dogma has replaced debate.
