The GOP’s choice in 2024: Trump Ultra, Trump Lite or Trump Zero.

At least eight 2024 hopefuls will speak at CPAC, the conservative movement’s premier conference this weekend in Florida, giving Republicans their clearest look yet at who’s competing in the traditional GOP presidential lanes.
But there’s only one lane that really matters: the one currently occupied by former President Donald Trump.
Trump, the keynote speaker at the Conservative Political Action Conference, is the party's undisputed leader at the moment, and for the foreseeable future. And whether he chooses to run again in 2024 or not, his outsized presence is likely to determine the shape of the primary.
“There isn’t a Trump lane. There’s a Trump Turnpike with multiple lanes and multiple people,” said Chris LaCivita, a veteran GOP strategist who most recently headed the anti-Biden super PAC Preserve America.
So the orange blob is coming out of hibernation this weekend to soak up some lovin' at the CPAC gathering in Florida.
So it could be time to dust off the Trump bingo card... eyes down and shots ready for all our fav lies and delusional twaddle.
