Secretive group of Hollywood conservatives suddenly dissolves.

The Friends of Abe has acted as a clandestine club for Hollywood conservatives for more than a decade, hosting secret events where they could vent rightwing views and hear speeches from visiting Tea Party luminaries.

But on Thursday the organisation – which counts Jon Voight, Jerry Bruckheimer and Kelsey Grammer among its 1,500 members – made an abrupt announcement: it was dissolving. …

The announcement fueled speculation that infighting over Donald Trump’s candidacy had drained commitment and appeared to frazzle it.
