Trump Defies Crowd, Takes on Libertarians at Their Own Convention after They Viciously Boo Him (Videos)

On Saturday evening, President Donald Trump attended the Libertarians’ National Convention in the Washington Hilton Hotel and it went about as well as anyone could have expected.

This from westernjournal.com.

Yes, the Republican Party and libertarians have similarities in their beliefs but they also have a multitude of differences.

Trump clearly intended to draw on these similarities. He stated:

In the last year, I’ve been indicted by the government on 91 different things.

So if I wasn’t a libertarian before, I sure as hell am a libertarian now.

He also attempted to appeal to the audience by stating that, if elected to a second term in office, he would:

“[Push for] limited government so

that the people can have an unlimited future.

However, while the president attempted to bridge the gap between Republican partisans and libertarians, it was far from sunshine and rainbows.

Trump was booed.

A lot.

And if the American people know anything about the 45th president of the United States it’s that he does not take a challenge quietly.

He stated:

Anyone can talk about defending freedom, but I’ve actually put everything on the line to resist these despots … And I stand before you tonight as your best hope of defeating the weaponized Biden, and the very evil regime that his people, because it’s probably not him because he doesn’t know where the hell he is.

As the flurry of discontent rose, Trump began to hit back against the riled crowd with quips reminding the Libertarian Party just how little they’ve achieved at the national scale.

According to The New York Times:

Defiantly, he told the crowd they should nominate him for the presidency.

He said:

If you want to lose, don’t do that. Keep getting your 3 percent every four years.

The Times reported:

Mr. Trump’s speech was without modern precedent: the presumptive nominee of a major political party giving a prime-time address at another party’s convention.

So, no, it was not a pleasant encounter entirely, but there is a very clear and smart reason behind it.

The president has been attempting to campaign in areas that may not have 100 percent support for him already, something opponent Joe Biden could never hope to do.

The former New York business mogul-turned-politician held a campaign rally on Thursday in the Bronx, not an area known for its heavy conservative lean, in hopes of pulling further votes in November.

His attendance at the libertarian event followed much of the same suit.

But the crowd was undoubtedly more supportive of Trump than liberals might have hoped—“Make America Great Again” hats could be seen throughout the event—the booing shows that he’s far from beloved by all. Some will never believe the truth about the designs of communism/globalism on America.

Clips of Trump being booed by Americans relatively close to the Republican Party’s platform might give CNN a fun video to air, but it does not mean Trump’s appearance was a waste of time.
