In a Wednesday interview with radio host Larry O'Connor, Schlapp said Trump is expected to attend this year's CPAC. If that holds true, it would mark Trump's fourth appearance at the conference. Senator Mitt Romney arrives for the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump at the U.S. Capitol on January 23, 2020 in Washington, DC.Romney has been a speaker at CPAC before, including delivering an address in 2013, the year after he lost the presidential election to Democrat Barack Obama.

AT LEASE HE HAS MORAL CHARACTER. SALUTE TO MR. ROMNEY.

zillygirlaz

But perhaps Mitt will have a bid for president appearing to be a man guided by his conscience and ethical principles!

You don't need to go, your a giant among stupid men an women! Thank you

Because the so called cpac is allergic to the TRUTH!

One of two who put country over politics! To bad they are so petty to do this to him.

RINO the purity test all Republicans give & none passes. Perhaps the worst thing about the GOP. Senator Romney you have become a stand out in a party of do nothing toadies who grovel before a self obsessed, CELEBUTARD.

Don’t worry Sen. Mitt Romney. If God is on your side, that’s more than the whole world against you. Always stand for what is right. Do what is right and God will bless your life in the midst of trouble.

That’s a bullshit conference anyway. Just another meeting that people can travel and eat on someone else’s dime.

Dictator in chief is rotten to his core:

How petty

BledsoeChuck

Tsk, tsk, tsk!! Good bye RINO!

Tribal

He's better off.

It would seem the definition of 'conservative' espoused by CPAC no longer seems inclusive of 'respecting the rule of law', the spirit of the Constitution, and following individual conscience.

Good for him

Mitt Romney a close associate on the board of Burisma as well. He’s in on the Burisma coverup. This is,t a Joe Biden scandal. Burisma greased a lot of people in DC

Sen Romney had the moral courage to stand up for his country - he honored his oath of office. He is a Profile in Courage.

We admire you for what you did - Mitt - you are a Republican who can think and act - the rest are a useless cowardly bunch to be voted out if office ASAP! This will backfire on them big time! I am supporting Any McGrath.

Lol.

Seig heil?

The Cult circles the wagons

God is all of the GOP just children?

But not Susan Collins. Why? RIPGOP

Petty ass republicans

Proud of you SenatorRomney for standing up! Thank you.

Dear Mitt. If CPAC is now the fascist, right wing party of Trump then wear the disinvite with pride. Maybe arrange your own Conservative conference at the same time for true conservatives and Trump can have his little coronation at CPAC.

It’s a cult.

Mitt Romney will emerge on top here. He’s the patriot. Not a CorruptionOverCountry member.

Not sure why he was invited in the first place.

Fascism.

Oh no - I can’t go to CPAP with all those cool smart people! (said no one ever)

Yahoo!!

But Devin Nunez is one of the speakers. That makes sense. I guess Corruption over Conviction is the criteria to be invited

Trump to be named Emperor at the event?

Serves Mitt right.

CPAC is a garbage, hate spewing racist cult and I'm sick of it being covered by the MSM like its a normal gathering of political activists.

Lamar Alexander opposes witnesses, likely sealing quick end to impeachment trialSen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., said Thursday night he would not vote to hear witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump, likely dooming a... Yes Logical legal choice. Sadly SenatorRomney either isn’t intelligent enough to see what Lamar and many of my Democrat friends do, or his personal vindictiveness. Wish he’d pay me back for money I spent on his campaign and book. We supported Romney - it’s not reciprocal. 😞GOP Coward. Dude just paid for his retirement. Republicans will pay this fool for the rest of his life.

Murkowski to vote against witnesses in Trump trial, likely dooming Dem push for Bolton testimonyThe Alaska senator had been one of Democrats' last, best hopes in their efforts to convince four Republicans to vote with them to allow additional witnesses. Yes Murkowski announced her decision at a senate lunch and her GOP colleagues cheered wildly liked crazed fans at a football game. There is nothing impressive or decent about letting people off the hook. You’ve done a terrible, terrible thing to our country, Senator. Gutless traitors
