Last week in sunny Orlando, Florida, a large group of Republicans got together at the Conservative Political Action Conference, also known as CPAC, to discuss what their movement needed to do next to change America.

Mr Trump, keynote speaker at the event, has described Ukraine's President Zelenskyy as brave, but repeated his admiration of Vladimir Putin, describing him as a smart, strong leader.
