Trump-Fluffing CPAC Cancels Fox News Despite Its ‘America Uncanceled’ Theme

The annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) is underway in Orlando, Florida with a familiar assembly of asininnies on parade. Among them are thirty-six Republican members of the House of Representatives and ten GOP senators. These dutiful congressional swamp dwellers claimed that their absence from work was due to a public health emergency.” And what better description is there of CPAC (aka the COVID Political Affliction Conference)?

Donald Trump Hugs Flag

This year’s event is particularly grotesque with panels scheduled to discuss “How Judges and Media Refused to Look at the Evidence [of voter fraud],” “The Left Pulled the Strings, Covered It Up,” and “How Government, Big Tech, and Media are Colluding to Deprive Us of Our Humanity,” They are diving head first into the Big Lie that Donald Trump and his political and press co-conspirators propagated about what he called a “stolen” election, despite having no evidence of it. It’s what led to the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on January 6th, and, by all appearances, they are yearning for more of the same.

However, the speakers roster at CPAC is exhibiting a peculiar weakness in one respect. The cable “news” network that was most responsible for propping up Trump has been conspicuously downsized. Last lear CPAC featured Fox All Stars such as Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Jeanine Pirro, Dana Perino, Katie Pavlich, and Mark Levin. But this year they the list is reduced to Sara Carter, Pete Hegseth, Larry Kudlow, Dan Bongino, Lawrence, Jones, and Jason Chaffetz. How many of those names will be recognizable to anyone but the most devoted Fox cultist?

This is likely due to the fact that Trump himself has turned against Fox. he has deemed Fox News “dead,” “unwatchable,” and “totally fake.” He even vowed to “wreck Fox News” for being insufficiently worshipful. So with Trump delivering the closing night keynote address, it simply wouldn’t do to have the network prominently represented at this affair. Never mind the Fox’s streaming service, Fox Nation, is one of the conference’s main sponsors, or that Fox News will still air much of the event live.

Will the conference attendees notice that there is no sign of Fox luminaries like Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and Lou Dobbs, who was literally canceled a few weeks ago?

Perhaps the snubbing of Fox has something to do with the billion dollar defamation lawsuits filed by voting technology companies Dominion and Smartmatic that named Fox, as well as Dobbs, Maria Bartiromo, Jeanine Pirro, and Trump attorneys Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell. Or maybe shunning Fox News was to be expected since many of Trump’s glassy-eyed cult followers have been changing channels to even more extremist fringe outfits like Newsmax and One American News Network (OANN).

The bottom line is that Fox News is clearly on the outs with Trump and the Trump loyalists at CPAC. But that hasn’t changed the editorial dishonesty or the rabidly biased propaganda emanating from the network’s Trumpian personalities. In fact, Fox has been moving even farther to the right in a desperate attempt to stem the bleeding caused by fleeing viewers and sinking ratings. It’s a downward spiral that is sure to follow Trump in a descent into irrelevancy.

  1. “How Judges and Media Refused to Look at the Evidence [of voter fraud],” “The Left Pulled the Strings, Covered It Up,” and “How Government, Big Tech, and Media are Colluding to Deprive Us of Our Humanity” !!!! Please tell me you’re joking. Please?

  2. Jo, the biggest joke thus far has been the gold-plated statue of Trumpler they wheeled into the hall on Day 1 of this fascist festival. Complete with stars-&-stripey shorts and sandals-with-socks, brandishing a magic wand (presumably to ward off Covid and marauding unbelievers). I saw a clip featuring its creator, a self-proclaimed artist whose ambition is to sell the statue to the Trump family, for installation in the Trump Library (the wot?). Last I heard, Trump only had one book and he wasn’t finished colouring it yet.

    • Yeah, the reference to the Trump Library flummoxed me a tad, too. That statue has got to be the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen. Am still trying to work out if the artist is truly Trump-worshipful or having a major laugh.

  3. Your artist needs to replace the trumpelstiltskin in which he is kissing an American flag with one in which the orange demagogue is hugging and kissing the Confederate battle flag which he seems dearly to love.

    • What a very good idea…Baby Trumpelstiltskin snuggling up to the Confederate flag…

  4. Sounds like maybe Dominion and Smartmatic may want to drop in on those break out sessions to see if they need to add defendants to their list of people who need to be sued. ?

  5. The “golden idol” of Trump is not very accurate, as it doesn’t have a big belly – has flat abs – plus, he isn’t leaning forward, like always. It could just be that, with socks & sandals, nowhere to hide his shoe lifts.

    No, this gold-plated version of “statuesque” Trump is likely how Trumpty-Dumpty sees himself in mirror. 0.1% chance Trump does not buy the statue of himself, someone else there would buy it, so artist will get his money & ego boost.
    What’s really sickening is that some of those idiots at CPAC are bowing down before the Trump golden idol! So much for “Christian right-wingers” ~ if any there at CPAC. Bible is VERY clear about “no idols”! I realize that morals don’t matter with that group of Rethugs.
    Wonder if artist put a ring on 1 hand so that Trump worshippers can kiss his ring & have pix taken? 1 hand holding wand (sceptre?) & other holding a “We the people” document.
    If any more proof was ever needed, think behavior of CPAC attendees with that DT statue, proves that the (R) Party is now Trump cult Party. No agenda or platform does GOP even pretend to have, just all about Trump — that’s a cult, not viable political party! Hopefully, Trump & family will be doing time in “Graybar Hotel” by the time 2024 comes around ~ otherwise, those ‘living brain donors’ actually plan to vote him into office! Again! For Trump, this is all about more big bucks in his pockets. Donors are still giving him almost $2mill a day!?!
    Will we ever be rid of that monstrosity??!!
