Schlapp emphasizes that the theme resonates with both Americans and international allies who \u200bseek a return to normalcy after feeling pressure from liberal agendas.<\/p>\n<p>Since resuming his presidency, Trump has taken measures to dismantle liberal policies in\u200b education \u2064and other sectors, fostering support from diverse\u2063 demographic groups, including\u200d minorities. schlapp \u200dargues that these actions have empowered everyday americans against elite pressures and that Trump&#8217;s leadership has reinvigorated the Republican Party.He draws a parallel to Ronald Reagan&#8217;s \u200cinfluence, suggesting\u2064 that Trump\u2019s impact could\u200d similarly reshape the party&#8217;s identity moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>The conference promises\u200d to showcase these themes and \u200dmessages, \u200bwhich underline \u2063a broader rejection of the &#8220;woke&#8221; culture and\u2062 reinforce the\u2064 belief in individual rights \u2064and parental control over education.Schlapp&#8217;s remarks\u2062 highlight the motivational shift\u200d within the party \u200cand the growing influence\u200c of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/conservatives-respond-to-twitters-ban-on-the-president\/\" title=\"Conservati...s respond to Twitter\u2019s ban on the President\">conservative voices<\/a> at CPAC and beyond.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">CPAC theme: &lsquo;America is back on track&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1994624\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>CPAC today unveiled its theme for this week&rsquo;s sold-out conservapalooza.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpac.org\/us\/events-dc2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Conservative Political Action Conference<\/a> Chairman Matt Schlapp revealed it exclusively to Secrets Tuesday: &ldquo;America is back on track.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The theme for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3319947\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cpac-this-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">four-day convention<\/a> at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center is both a bow to the massive changes President Donald Trump has introduced in his first month in office and America&rsquo;s global fans who have been hoping for the country to start acting normal again, Schlapp told Secrets.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;They just want America to get back to being America.

So it&rsquo;s really ironic because just like CPAC plays this role around the world, the anti-globalists are having the biggest global impact,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<p>And hopefully, said Schlapp, Trump and his actions so far will embolden the Republican Party as the administration of former President Ronald Reagan did.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;What Trump is doing, personally is he&rsquo;s inspiring politicians to stop being like the mealy-mouthed Republicans that rubber-stamped all this graft that DOGE is now uncovering because they didn&rsquo;t really want to fight on spending, and they didn&rsquo;t want to talk about cultural issues, and they didn&rsquo;t want to do anything icky, and they didn&rsquo;t want to do anything that would result in someone screaming out about it at a town hall,&rdquo; he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SEE THE LATEST POLITICAL NEWS AND BUZZ FROM WASHINGTON SECRETS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Much of that messaging is expected to be on display at the CPAC gathering.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Reagan saved the Republican Party.
