I used to watch CPAC, when I was a Republican. You and Trump have destroyed it. Romney is more of a conservative than Trump will ever be. But more importantly, Romney is an honest man. The Republican Party died & the party Trump is disgusting. History will not be kind to you.

The Trumpublican Party has no morals, no values, and ignores the Constitution they swore to uphold. All y'all gotta go.
