From the American Conservative Union’s press release:
“Donald Trump is an American patriot and success story with a massive following among small government conservatives,” said ACU Chairman Al Cardenas. “I look forward to welcoming him back to the CPAC stage next week. Mr. Trump’s previous CPAC appearance was hugely popular among our attendees and we expect it will be even more popular this year.”
Donald Trump is many things: birther, eminent domain abuser, sexist, former Barack Obama cheerleader. One thing he is not is conservative.

There are people who defend/espouse conservatism on TV. And there are people who PLAY conservatives on TV. You can tell the difference.—

Real small-government conservatives aren’t falling for it:

All #CPAC2013 decisions can be understood by realizing that, like any group throwing a big event, the main goal is selling enough tickets.—

So critics cited #birther stuff when talking about @pamelageller not being at CPAC. So what's Trump's excuse?—

Just received official ACU e-mail touting Donald Trump's CPAC speech. My response: REMOVE ME FROM THIS EMAIL LIST IMMEDIATELY. #CPACisdead—

That's it. I'm boycotting CPAC. (Mostly because I don't want to spend money on the plane ticket, but still.)—
