CPAC is a Weird Tradition, and This Year’s Was No Exception

Every year, the Conservative Political Action Committee brings together some of the star players in the Republican party.

From politicians to politically motivated celebrities, it’s a gathering of those who want to choose the conservative agenda for the next year.

But it’s always a little weird. Past conferences have included Clint Eastwood talking to an empty chair, Paul Ryan talking about an empty paper bag, and more.

This year’s included Donald Trump Jr leaning heavily on Willy Wonka for some inspiration, Donald Trump promising to be retribution incarnate, and Mike Lindell saying Ron DeSantis is a “Trojan horse” for the left.

That may be why the Club for Growth – another conservative action group – has risen in challenge to the CPAC and holds their conference the same weekend.
