βWomp wompβ: Trumpβs βobsessionβ with crowd sizes rubbed in his face over low CPAC turnout

MS NOW host Catherine Rampell took a sharp jab at President Donald Trump on Sunday for skipping the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) convention for the first time in nearly a decade, suggesting he did so to avoid embarrassing optics tied to his βobsessionβ with crowd sizes.
βIf we know anything about Donald Trump, it is his obsession with a handful of fairly specific things: gold plating, the Village People, and of course, crowd sizes. So you can only imagine how he must feel seeing this split screen,β Rampell said on MS NOWβs βThe Weekend Primetime,β queuing up a split-screen video of the massive No Kings rallies and the CPAC event in Texas.
βOn the left side, you have the absolutely massive No Kings day protests which took over small towns, big cities all over the place, all around the world. Organizers say at least eight million people showed up. And then on the right side of your screen you have CPAC. Womp, womp. Notice a difference?β
This yearβs CPAC conference notably does not have either Trump or any of his children speaking at the event, often a strong draw for conservatives to attend the event. Turnout appears to have suffered as a result, Mother Jones reported.
βItβs sh----,β said GOP delegate Warner Kimo Sutton of the eventβs turnout, speaking with Mother Jones. βLast time this place was packed.β
