U.S. President Donald Trump will not attend the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) for the first time in ten years, according to reports from the United States on March 25. The conference is being held from March 25 to 28 in Grapevine, Texas. According to Jin10, a White House official confirmed Trump's absence from this year's event. Vice President Vance is also not listed among the speakers at the conference.
The CPAC meeting comes at a time when the Republican Party is experiencing internal divisions over U.S. military actions against Iran. Additionally, the party is preparing for a challenging midterm election year as it seeks to maintain control of both houses of Congress. CPAC is one of the most significant annual gatherings for conservative activists, officials, and media figures in the United States. Since 2016, Trump has been a regular attendee at the conference.
