        Imagine Bill Buckley's response to CPAC. "I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said". We knew Ronald Reagan, Donald Trump is no Ronald Reagan. Trump is more like Homer Simpson. I hope I didn't brain my damage.

        CPAC sucked at everything this year. That @mschlapp interview with @MichaelSteele was tragically revealing

        Spoiler alert. They are not joking. They have no principles -- conservative or otherwise.

        "The fundamental problem with comparing these two men is that Reagan wasn’t a buffoon or a racist or misogynist or raging narcissist or natural-born liar every time he opened his mouth." Always appreciate that you have no reservations about speaking frankly as a conservative.

        CPAC is where the laws of gravity --like truth--no longer apply, what should go down goes up there..Trump's reality distortion field...

        Trump bends the truth round the black hole of corruption that is true nature, around which truth are lies and lies are the new truth...

        Reagan was a better man and a better leader than Trump, but you’ve overlooked some of the ugliness that is part of 40’s record. Backing apartheid in South Africa, kicking off his campaign in Philadelphia, MS, ignoring the AIDS crisis...One needs to account for these things too.
