Ex-President Donald Trump closed out CPAC, the annual conference of conservative leaders, by airing grievances aplenty and promising only he can save America from becoming a “filthy communist nightmare” by getting rid of the “deep state” and overturning President Joe Biden’s policies if he gets a second chance in the nation’s highest office.
“If you put me back in the White House, we will be a free nation. Their reign will be over,” he told a cheering crowd at the three-day right-wing conference just outside Washington, DC. “We’re no longer a free country. We don’t have a free press. We don’t have a free anything.”
The ex-commander-in-chief spent most of his speech insulting his political enemies on the left and the right and positioned himself as the one and only person who can make America great again.
