The annual far-right conference CPAC is a ghost town, according to some photos of the conference space.
C-SPAN has been airing some of the panel discussions while showing crowd shots of the empty chairs. Reporters at the event have taken photos of not only the empty chairs, but the people who are on hand to watch the speeches are almost entirely elderly and white.
Plenty of space for vendors. In past years, these halls were filled with various conservative groups and authors, hawking their books and other material. This year, the CPAC vendors are mostly scam artists tryin to gete you to move your IRA into gold; Mike Huckabee pushing a “sleep aid” — $39.95 for the first month, $119.00 per month after; and Jim Baker pushing “six-month survival food packs for when Biden’s inflation forces egg prices to $2.00 each” — the “food packs” contain dried food, including gag-inducing powdered eggs.
Here’s Don, Jr., in front of a photo of the White House, handing out autographs and taking a break every half-hour to do a line of coke. No word on whether there will be photos of the Fulton County Courthouse.

It appears as though after lying to their followers for years, CPAC has now reached herd stupidity.
