Comment: Trump's speach at CPAC was pure vintage Trump.   You can only get away with this sort of nonesense when you are preaching to the converted. The same old saw.  If it weren't for all the repetition the speech would probably have been about 5 minutes long. He doesn't seem to be learning anything. The applause from the audience was quite muted most of the time.  Almost apologetic.  The only thing that really seem to stir the audience was his appeal to patriotism at the end. As Donald himself would say, very sad.
