Wild moment CPAC audience member falls asleep as hundreds of seats left empty
The conference had hundreds of empty seats as the audience seemed in a sleepy mood, as the crowd cheered for impeachment hearings in an awkward moment

An unidentified member of the press was seen dozing off on the third day of this year's Conservative Political Action Conference.

The conference had hundreds of empty seats as the audience seemed in a sleepy mood, as the crowd cheered for impeachment hearings in an awkward moment.


Matt Schlapp, the chairman of the American Conservative Union, asked the crowd if they wanted to see impeachment hearings take place, and the crowd responded immediately, making him immediately regret asking. The crowd erupted into cheers after hearing the question, and the embarrassed speaker was left shocked, quickly following up by saying, "No... that was the wrong answer."

It made me laugh. Maybe they all fell on their heads and had some sense knocked into them.

10. They thought that he meant impeaching Dems in government is my guess.

But the mistake is funny.

Or, they haven't updated their reactions to that word since Biden's term ended.

14. I recently asked a MAGA voter

if Trumps actions were hurting him, and he replied that pain the Trump/Republican's actions were causing him and his family were nothing compared to the pain they all suffered when the Republicans stuck a needle into their heads and withdrew half of their brains......

15. Did we have a "woke" moment at CPAC?
