Republican Former President Donald Trump to Address Libertarian National Convention
Independent Political Report ^ | May 1, 2024 | Jordan Willow Evans

Posted on 05/01/2024 8:04:24 AM PDT by Angelino97

Republican former President Donald Trump will address Libertarian delegates at the upcoming Libertarian National Convention in Washington, D.C., later this month. According to the party, this will be the first instance where a former President will directly address members, candidates, and leadership.

“Join us for a historic moment at the 2024 Libertarian National Convention as we welcome former President Donald J. Trump to the podium,” the official website for the Libertarian National Convention reads. “This momentous occasion will mark the first time a former President directly addresses our members, candidates, and executive committee. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear insights from a prominent figure in American politics and watch him engage with Libertarian ideals.”

In addition to announcing Trump’s attendance, the convention site also asks Libertarian Party members attending the convention and those interested in Trump’s participation to make a ten-dollar donation to vote in a poll to determine which topics Trump will address.

Additionally, the site is selling Trump-specific merchandise in what it refers to as “The Don Collection.”

LOL, quit playing games.

One can’t be done and the other can be done.

Do the one that is impossible and will never, and can never be done, and then bring up your erasing America’s border lines.

Call it what you will but end welfare and government programs first, and then we will talk about your removing the concept of national borders and allowing the entire world to move in.

Another thing the LP is trying to hide is that if you truly end the concept of borders as they desire then the 3rd world would flood in regardless of government programs and welfare.

Look at all of Africa and all of Latin America, and Asia and all over the 3rd world, there are 100s and 100s, and 100s of millions of people living under dire conditions of little or no water except at distance, dirt floors, no electricity, nothing, and no government welfare, people who would much prefer to live come to America and live in its wealth and infrastructure as poor people without welfare than to live where they are.

He is what he is and that is a GOP Senator, not a Libertarian Party nut case.

By all means, you should do everything you can to alienate libertarians, especially those who would support causes such as actual support of the second amendment and limited government in general.Please keep it up. Be as insulting and devoid as reason and logic as possible. And keep supporting The GOP as they sell the nation down the river, but incrementally slower than the democrats. There is a reason the GOP is known far and wide as the stupid party.

You mean there are people here who are not going to vote for Trump and I am insulting their libertarian party candidate?

As far as the GOP Senator, quit pretending he belongs to a different party, you are alienating his voters and insulting him.

Apparently... the Mods are finally awake...

To re-post with some minor editing...

“Nothing is possible if no one is willing to make serious changes. It’s why I supported Trump. I thought he would have gone even further than he did dismantling the regulatory stranglehold the FedGov has on the economy. Even the minimal amount he was able to do had a big impact.

Today’s RINO’s sure as heck aren’t doing any good.”

You’re an idiot. Rand has said several times that he’s libertarian leaning, as are many republicans like myself. I’ve thought the party’s stance on immigration and abortion are unsupportable, but they are clearer and more directly on point on some issues, like the 2nd amendment than even the most stalwart republicans are.

Our republic is desperately in need of a strong liberty oriented party to shake both the democrats and republicans out of their ossified and complacent positions. Unfortunately, the powers that be have made ANY inroads by third parties extremely difficult via many, many procedural and financial roadblocks.

People like you who cling to the republican party like it actually stands for and delivers on principles are delusional. Republican party is full of milquetoasts who are terrified of the media saying they are mean or something for not going along with leftist insanity. Even when Trump had both the house and senate, the republicans fought against his agenda as hard as democrats did.
Keep on voting for exactly the same thing, and you’ll keep getting exactly the same results.

By all means vote against the GOP politicians like Republican President Donald Trump and Republican Senator Rand Paul and vote for whatever nut case the Libertarian party puts up if that suits you.

I think if the border were private property... Most of the LP could be swayed on a property Rights stance.

The LP is open borders as a matter of principle. Also as a matter of principle, they are absolutists on individual property rights.

“Before you trespass here, get right with your God” type folks. Allowing ranchers along the border to set up automated gun emplacements to thin out the invading hoards would not be outside the realm of possibility.

Yet your knees bang together over a violated Ukranian border.

You people are delightful.

Thank you. We really are...

Do I really need to point out the idiocy of conflating armed aggression from a neighboring Nation and civilians crossing a border for peaceful purposes?

Also, with far fewer taxes, no welfare/handouts, and actual free markets... the threat we are currently under from mass illegals is completely negated.

It's logical and consistent. But, politics would lose too much power and things to scare the voters with...

If you ever wonder why Libertarians are thought of a Clowns, read what you just wrote.

More hazy Libertarian nonsense that detaches you from the rational world. This goofy notion is as infantile as your explanation of how Ukraine can pay back it's loans with a credit card. It's no wonder you're a Zelensky acolyte, you have a child-like naivete that has you trapped in a comic book world.

Your denigration is as predictable as it is banal...

Have you seen what your current system is producing? It’s not us wear the clown shoes here.

“Zelensky acolyte”... Not at all. I think he should have stuck to comedy... But, you’d know that if you were really interested in anything other than being a dick...
