CPAC Trump Cultists “Formally” Uninvite Mitt Romney

Once upon a time, the annual CPAC event was a cornucopia of the right – libertarians, teabaggers, hate groups, far-right groups, and yes, even some moderate Republicans would attend and be given prominent speaking slots. Not so anymore now that the entire Republican party has gone full Trump cultist. Evidence can be seen below by their reaction to Mitt Romney’s vote to allow trial witnesses. Romney, of course, was their much-heralded headliner in 2012.
