Trump excluded from exclusive meeting of conservative leaders and donors

This week, conservative leaders and donors will gather for an exclusive event in Georgia. Noticeably absent from that guest list is former President Donald Trump. CBS News chief election and campaign correspondent Robert Costa joins CBS News' Jericka Duncan to discuss.

It's a Think Tank, and he doesn't meet the basic criteria.

[fumiyama]

Inviting someone who embraces Putin would be stupid

[peziki]

When Trump is on the agenda the whole event is just a rally for him .

[blockingtheology]

As soon as I heard "think tank" it was clear that Trump would be misplaced.

[bobsamuels]

They did not invite Trump because the meeting would be about him instead of whether they will give him 200 million $ and pay his legal fees or not.

[BrandonClark-StocksPassports]

When you are not invited then that means they don't like you.

Its just as simple as that

[williamhung]

Trump? Who in their right mind would invite him. Trump is like Tornadoes, he will destroy everything.

[davidburrow]

McConnell has to go, he's not to be trusted

[RetireMe]

He would just call them “weak” and insult everyone

[richardnicholson]

Everybody in the U.S.A. is tired and sick of Trump and his Lies.

[SA-cvfy]

since he said putin is a genius he could get a seat at the moscow table

[lesliecurran]

Things need to go towards cooperation between parties and bipartisanship in order for democracy to thrive. It's actually the core of democracy, that we can have differing opinions but still work together to have a future. This extremism is costing us dearly.

[magoollaful]

Love this. Don't care for the purpose or attendees, but any well-deserved, ego assaulting insult of that traitor warms my heart.

[cherylmcnutt]

Glad to see them distancing themselves from old Lizard Face. That said, this does NOT release them from their culpability in supported his illegal, unfair policies. They are two-faced!

[pbuckbaseball]

They are starting to get tired of hearing his whining about losing an election.

[FuzzyStayBuzzin]

Him calling Putin a genius probably did it

[ronblack]

All trump is going to do is talk about how he lost the election. 🤣

ABOUT TIME Conservatives made their mission about the American people, and not about Trump.

[bettaeveryday]

When he got upset at not being invited, they told him it was a book club and that they didn't think he'd be into it.

[agame]

If he attended the think-tank would be about as deep as the lid on a Pringle's can.
