Donald Trump’s decision to skip an appearance at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this year, combined with his plummeting approval numbers, appears to be having an attendance impact.

Reporting from Grapevine, Texas, at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center, MS NOW’s Rosa Flores found plenty of booths selling pro-MAGA merchandise — and few takers in the hallways.

MS NOW host Chris Jansing noted that Trump’s poor approval numbers in a recent Fox News poll showed the president at 59 percent disapproval and then asked Flores, “Rosa, what's the mood there at CPAC?”

“Well, let me show you around," she replied as she wandered past empty booths and one man staring at his cellphone.

“There's a lot of sparkles and bedazzles. You see a lot of red, white and blue here at CPAC. I got to tell you, there's a lot of empty space. I would have expected more people to be here. But everything that I hear, a lot of it is because President Trump is not expected to be here.”

“Chris, I got to tell you, I've spoken to a lot of people today and my head is still spinning a little bit because I asked people a lot of questions, and what I was receiving was an alternative reality,” she continued.

“I asked, for example, about the Fox News poll that you just mentioned showing President Trump's disapproval rating, and people said that they didn't believe it. And I said, ‘Wait, but this is Fox News. You don't believe the Fox News poll?’ They didn't believe that. I asked him about gas prices. And they say that they don't blame President Trump. They say that it was worse under President Biden. And I said, ‘Wait, but the president decided to attack Iran. That restricted supply. There's a whole supply and demand thing.’ They say, no, they don't blame him.”

“And then I asked them about Iran, and they said to me, multiple people, that that is America First. And I was trying to understand how that was America First. I said, ‘Wait, but he promised no forever wars. He promised no forever wars forever and ever.’ And they somehow explained that what President Trump is doing is best for America.”
