Trump pretends he wasn�t booed relentlessly at Libertarian event
Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, spoke at the Libertarian Party�s
convention. The booing left no doubt: It was a striking failure.
May 27, 2024, 8:18 AM EDT

By Steve Benen

In the abstract, it was difficult to see how the plan was supposed to work.
Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee of one political party, apparently
thought it�d be a good idea to appear at the national nominating convention
of a different political party, seeking its support for his 2024 candidacy.

It seemed like the sort of strategy that wouldn�t work. After having seen
the reception the Republican received at the Libertarian Party�s event, the
results were even worse than expected. NBC News reported:

Insults were hurled at former President Donald Trump when he took to
the stage Saturday night to address the Libertarian National Convention.
The crowd�s hostility to the former president was especially pronounced
when Trump directly solicited their votes. Each time Trump asked attendees
at the Washington Hilton for their votes or the party�s nomination, he was
met with loud boos.

In case this isn�t obvious, the former president isn�t generally accustomed
to speaking to audiences that jeer him relentlessly. On the contrary, Trump
tends to speak at rallies where attendees have an almost religious-like
reverence for him.

With this in mind, when the presumptive GOP nominee heard the unmistakable
booing from delegates to the Libertarian gathering, he responded by
insulting the party.

�If you want to lose, don�t [nominate me],� Trump said. �Keep getting your
3% every four years.�

This, naturally, generated even more vociferous booing.

It was, to be sure, a bold move. As a New York Times report noted, �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.�

It also appeared to fail spectacularly. Evidently, the delegates to the
Libertarian National Convention thought it�d be preferable to nominate a
Libertarian � and Trump is clearly not that.

Indeed, while I�m not in a position to speak on Libertarians� behalf, it�s
fair to say that the whole point of the party is to dramatically curtail
governmental power and authority in every area of public life. This bears
no real resemblance to Trump�s vision � as Saturday�s event made clear.

Ultimately, the Republican didn�t even bother to submit the paperwork to
compete for the Libertarian Party�s nomination, and delegates ended up
nominating party activist Chase Oliver for president.

Soon after, Trump turned to his social media platform to claim, �The reason
I didn�t file paperwork for the Libertarian Nomination, which I would have
absolutely gotten if I wanted it (as everyone could tell by the enthusiasm
of the Crowd last night!), was the fact that, as the Republican Nominee, I
am not allowed to have the Nomination of another Party.�

First, if Trump isn�t allowed to have another party�s nomination, perhaps
he can explain why he spoke at the Libertarian event and asked for its
nomination.

Second, the idea that the Libertarian nomination was his for the taking is
ridiculous to anyone who actually saw and heard the reception Trump
received at the convention.

It's reminiscent of the guy in high school who asks out the girl he likes,
gets rejected, and tells his friends he "absolutely" could've gone out with
her, but he decided he was just too busy.

�The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears,� George
Orwell wrote in his dystopian classic, 1984. �It was their final, most
essential command.�

The relevance of the line lingers for a reason.

The only one worshipped more than Trump in this country is Putin. To many
people they're like Gods.

You are lying:

https://news.gallup.com/poll/471872/americans-favorable-rating-russia-sinks-new-low.aspx

Americans’ already-negative opinions of Russia have soured further in
the past year, dropping from 15% holding a favorable view to 9%. The
current reading for Russia is the lowest Gallup has measured since it
first asked about the “Soviet Union” in this format in 1989.

Republicans, Democrats Now Have Similar Opinions of Russia
Since 2021, Russia’s image has worsened among all major party groups,
with its favorable rating down 19 points among Republicans, 13 points
among independents and 10 points among Democrats.

Republicans and Democrats now each give Russia identical 6% favorable
ratings, while independents are slightly higher at 11%.

Speak for your own peanut gallery, clown. And stop corrupting the
followup groups, that is cowardice.

Give credit where credit is due! Libertarians take their politics
seriously, unlike the ill-informed Trumptards.

So "seriously" they have never had a credible candidate for President
and precious few for any national or major state offices either.

They do field some minor local influence, sometimes for sheriff.

"Well, some changes, unfortunately, have already been locked in place,"
Gore replied. "Sea level increases are going to continue no matter what
we do now.

Why are you responding to your own post as if it's that of someone else? You and
"Loran" are one and the same person.

Well, for starters, Trump wasn't "booed relentlessly" at the event.

Secondly, the Libertarian candidate is a leftist.
