Do you trust the CPAC results?
If you're asking whether I think the results were honest I'd say yes, but I'd also add that we are 1) still more than three years away from the 2024 election; 2) Trump has much bigger name recognition than anyone else among the rank and file, and 3) Trump is a weird case because he has quite a bit of support from the more conspiracy-minded folk (witness the "Trump 2021" shirts at CPAC worn by people who think Trump is somehow going to be "reinstated" as president (despite that not actually being possible). Plus quite a few Trump supporters I have encountered don't give a fuck about conservatism; they simply like Trump (who isn't really what one would consider a prototypical conservative in a lot of his policies).
