      *Is it possible they are getting dumber? By that I mean, is that literally even possible?“*

      Video: [https://twitter.com/i/status/2037542794139521391](https://twitter.com/i/status/2037542794139521391)

      „At one point, the audience started cheering for President Trump’s impeachment.“

      „Attendees at the 2026 Conservation Political Action Conference seem to be dazed and confused after a disastrously chaotic month for President Donald Trump. In the last 30 days, he has started a [war in the Middle East](https://newrepublic.com/post/207989/trump-war-iran-cause-stupidity), deployed federal agents to [airports](https://newrepublic.com/post/208218/ice-airports-trump-dumbest-idea), and refused to end the partial government shutdown.“

      „While [speaking](https://x.com/AndrewFeinberg/status/2037542794139521391) from the CPAC stage Friday in Grapevine, Texas, American Conservative Union chairman Matt Schlapp asked a question he apparently thought would hype up the crowd.“

      “How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings?”

      „The crowd erupted in cheers.“

      “No,” Schlapp responded, shaking his head. “That was the wrong answer. Let me try it again. How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings?” he asked the crowd for a second time.“

      Again, he was met with cheers.“

      “NOOO!” Schlapp responded with a chuckle. He dropped the question and hastily moved on, seemingly accepting that Trump’s base apparently doesn’t know what impeachment means—despite the fact that the president has now been impeached twice.“

      „Though they’re united by red MAGA caps and American flag attire, the crowd at CPAC appears to be uncharacteristically disengaged after Trump’s tumultuous first year back in office. Younger and older members are [divided](https://newrepublic.com/post/208218/ice-airports-trump-dumbest-idea) over the war in Iran, affordability is plummeting, and the Epstein files have [raised suspicions](https://www.wired.com/story/maga-is-still-very-angry-about-epstein-but-they-wont-blame-trump/) across MAGA. “

      „In a separate instance Thursday, the crowd again did not know when or how to cheer. In a [conversation](https://www.rawstory.com/cpac-fails-to-boo-biden/) with White House border czar Tom Homan, CPAC host Melody Schlapp asked how Trump immigration policies compared to the “Biden years.”

      „Waiting for a reaction, Schlapp paused and turned her head to the crowd. She was met with silence.“

      “I’m not hearing a boo when I say Joe Biden, people! Come on! We do audience participation here!”

      So are they going to add applause signs now. When it lights up, to tell them to applause?

      “I’m not hearing a boo when I say Joe Biden, people! Come on! We do audience participation here!”

      so, so, so sad. its all so performative and hollow. There isn’t even a veneer at this point, its just ‚when I said Biden you say Boo, Biden- BOO!, biden- BOO!‘

      so embarrassing.

      Free tip though CPAC, add applause signs and musical cues so the audience knows what to do.

    7. rapturaeglantine on

      Dude. They’ve literally been ideologically whipsawed so much they have no idea how to behave.

    8. J_Ryall on

      This is not the first headline I’ve seen today where I had to double-check to see whether it was from a satirical website. Fuck this timeline.

    9. Formal-Low6888 on

      Having listened to some conservative social media lately and yes some conservatives hate Trump over Iran. So maybe some do want his ass impeached. 

    12. DemandredG on

      A bunch of deeply stupid cult members that make clapping seals look discerning. Fun to see the hosts be so transparent in their manipulation: “you’re supposed to boo when we say Joe Biden”

    13. Historical_Bend_2629 on

      Bannon’s firehose of bullshit. Turns out there is a blowback, especially for the already confused and stupid.

      Welcome to Dumocracy; The success of the Far-Right’s attack on education.

    15. WhiteSalamancer on

      FWIW Buzz Windrip is no longer president at the end of “It Can’t Happen Here”

      Assuming this is a picture of the event it is disheartening having young women there.
      The old, white MAGA hat guy with the purse I would expect to be there.

    18. Zipzorpzap on

      The rotting big macs inside their deformed skulls are too liquified to process the usual commands.

    19. wishbeaunash on

      That’s the consequence of replacing your entire political ideology with the demented whims of a single old man, yes.

    22. Literally_Laura on

      If you stand in a room with the guy and don’t turn your back on him, you’ve already gone wrong.

    23. turb0_encapsulator on

      if you point out that America’s partisan divide is largely a cognitive ability divide, you’re a bad person, or something.

    26. Acceptable-Size-2324 on

      When CPAC doesn´t know what to cheer on, you know the state of the GOP is fucked

    27. dehydratedrain on

      Didn’t trump call for his own applause in Mar a lago recently? Walked in and started clapping his hands for them to join in?

      He loves his poorly educated. Not sure how they can figure out voting buttons if….. oh shit. That’s where Elon comes in.

      These are maga cultists that blindly believe whatever pedo trump shits down their throats. As pedo trump slides into dementia and tells them multiple different stories they are lost, confused, and wandering. The fact they still worship pedo trump is just sad. Call them pedo supporters for the rest of their lives.

    29. whichwitch9 on

      Proof it’s a cult: they felt like they were supposed to cheer, and ended up cheering for Trump’s impeachment

      These people are not capable of thinking for themselves

    33. alabasterskim on

      So what you’re supposed to do is boo or cheer when you hear something boo or cheer-worthy, not booing/cheering just because you were told to. It’s really easy, if you’re not in a cult.

    36. Maoleficent on

      They only react to statements that they can blindly applaud. They have no critical thinking skills so when a question is posed, they freeze. This is how a hive mind works. There are so many examples of reporters asking maga questions and they sputter and hem and haw because they have no knowledge to even make an argument.

      I can respect someone who believes in something and can state facts as well as thier opinion in a thoughtful way. even if I strongly disagree.

    37. GiuseppeZangara on

      People can only handle so much cognitive dissonance before their brains turn to mush and they no longer understand what they support or oppose. Anyone who willingly attends CPAC is far beyond our help.

    40. BigTonez808sy on

      Indescribably stupid. Top to bottom. The fruits of a rotting education system has become cancer of half of the population of our country. Pathetic. 

    41. FlyFisherman4Life on

      Is there a „draft sign-up“ table at CPAC? they seem eager enough to continue fighting

    42. Beer-Me on

      Not surprised that a group who have been conditioned to not think for themselves over the last 40 years arent able to think for themselves

    43. Nightredditing on

      It’s not confusion, it’s stupidity.

      Without clear cues, republicans are mindless sheep.

    44. mmliu1959demo on

      Wouldn’t cheering or booing be predicated on each person’s personal beliefs, regardless of what Trump says?

    45. _probablyryan on

      Because they think this is a team sport. And it was really easy to identify what team they were on when they believed the democrats were the party of elites, protecting pedophiles, who were going to start a war and destroy the economy. But when their team is fully bankrolled by the richest people on earth, protecting a pedophile, bombing random countries while the market crashes it sure does muddy the waters a bit, huh?

    46. Electronic_Wait_7249 on

      God forbid they make a choice for themselves.

      Can someone assign them their freedom back?
