  1. That’ll be a hit to the ego.

    Hope his aides are prepared for flying ketchup tonight.

  2. “They were all saying boo-urns!”

    —The Trump Campaign Tomorrow

  3. Oh that’s awesome. I bet that stung his fragile ego hard.

  4. Aren’t libertarians the ones who let bears take over their town in New Hampshire or whatever? They’d rather have actual bears in charge than Trump.

  5. I want to know who in their mind thought this was a good idea, so that I can send them a present

  6. Yes, it’s funny but let’s zoom out and touch with the realities here.

    1. The 🍊has a declining mind (he couldn’t say “libertarian”) all of his public appearances are crafted, teleprompter only affairs. No ad libibs no real engagement. [From his last week of appearances he’s heavily reliant on the teleprompters and will freeze without them.](https://www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-posts-appear-show-213000357.html)

    2. Coming to this event is outside his control, and reflects the reality that this guy, isn’t popular.

    3. This event was a risk, a gamble and signals that his ‘campaign’ is flailing. He’s desperate, a felony conviction, looms any day now…he’s trapped.

    4. The 🍊 lashes out at the crowd several times. Possibly realizing that it really is the end for him.

    Sad.

  8. Oh so he’s claiming to be a libertarian now? Go run on that ticket then and good luck

  10. MAGA tried taking over this convention to make it look like Trump had the libertarian vote and had the secret service confiscate rubber chickens that rfk campaign was passing out insinuating Trumps a chicken for not debating him. Irony is dead in this timeline.

  12. Watch closely, he’s trying not to show it but he’s rattled and pissed-off with the crowd reaction.

  13. LOL, Trump somehow wasn’t shitty enough for Libertarians.

  14. Ok so here’s what happens next. Tomorrow and possibly at 3am edt Trump is going to whine and cry about how the booing is fake news and in reality libertarians support him like no other candidate in history. Then later in the day he will launch some new and inexplicably fucked conspiracy – such as the FBI being sent to mar a lago to assassinate him – out of sheer desperation for adoration and egomania. And then early next week he’ll be found guilty in the hush money trial and he’ll lose his god damned mind.

  15. “Left wing fascism”

    Fascism is a right wing ideology

  16. I now feel about the Libertarian Party the way Churchill felt about Stalin in 1941, “If Hitler invaded Hell, I would make at least a favourable reference of the Devil in the House of Commons.”

    He again promised to pardon the J6 traitors. (And said they were the most oppressed people in American history. So much for the outreach to Black voters.) And promised to defund any school that has a vaccine mandate (which is every public school in the country, never mind that the antivax movement is killing thousands of people with preventable diseases).

    Insane that he has a chance. I just donated to Biden.

  17. I really don’t want to project ‘smug liberal Democrat voter in 2016’ kinda stuff but man, this does not look good. Is Trump really polling *that* well that he has a ‘solid’ chance of winning?

    I mean who even answers polls? I just don’t buy it. I don’t buy that this guy who is being booed by hardcore *libertarians* is this resurgent Republican going to sweep the dumb libs and their decrepit overlord Biden in November. I mean this can’t be a sign of a healthy and strong campaign and campaign base.

    I really want that to be right, but the only thing anyone can do is vote. Vote in November and in every election you can. We’ll see the results then and hopefully the American people make the right decision.

  18. What happened at this event is kryptonite to fascists. It may not look as much, but it’s something he can’t control and will certainly destroy him from inside.

  19. He misunderstood what it meant when someone said he owned the libs.

  20. “Keep getting your three or four percent”, okay that was good. It’s also good hearing this guy get boo’d.

  21. I’ve always considered myself a libertarian and I’ll be voting for Biden this year.

  22. I’m torn. I want to watch him get heckled, but I don’t want to listen to him.

  23. I hope that booing this orange fartsack becomes normalized. Clearly he doesn’t like it.

  24. “If I wasn’t a libertarian I am now”.

    Ummmm. Ok. So you’re not a Republican? Good to know lol.

  25. Welp, that’s another group headed for the camps like the rest of us if he wins again.
