Five No-Shows

The Daily Caller reports five once-notable Republicans from the pre-Trump era are not in attendance at the on-going Republican National Convention. The five are former President George W. Bush, former Rep. Liz Cheney, former Speaker Paul Ryan, former Vice President Mike Pence, and former presidential candidate and current Sen. Mitt Romney.

One supposes they didn't want to be reminded they are no longer important. Under Trump's leadership, the Republican Party has moved on, leaving them behind.

As notable as their absence is the fact that literally nobody in Milwaukee misses them. They typify an anti-populist GOP which did NOT represent the working men and women of our great land. They are now RINOs who will probably vote for Democrats in November.
