   "If I wasn't a libertarian before, I'm sure as hell a libertarian now," Donald Trump tells the Libertarian National Convention, saying this is because he's been indicted by the federal government 91 times.

     Trump promises to free Ross William Ulbricht, who is serving a life term for creating and operating the darknet market website Silk Road. This is an important cause for many Libertarian delegates.

     Libertarian Party should nominate him as their presidential candidate "only if you want to win. Maybe you don't want to win," says Trump. Crowd boos. Trump then adds if they don't want to nominate him then they can continue to get their 3% in presidential elections.

     I don't think Donald Trump has ever heard a crowd boo and heckle him like this. He's now rushing through his teleprompter speech and not doing much ad-libbing.

     Trump says he's extending a hand and asking for the cooperation of the Libertarians to defeat Communism, Marxism and Biden.
     "You have to combine with us," adds Trump after being interrupted by protest chants.
     Crowd boos.

     Vidkun Quisling is sitting right there in the encyclopedia. Happy little Nazi affiliate for you to use.

     Though it's not like Trimp's even a quisling, the man just wants another buck before he kicks off. And fuck the rest of us. He's not a betrayer, he just swings his moral compass right in the direction of his withered, spray-tanned dick.

     @w7voa Nah. He is so full of himself. Considering the high likelihood he would be the one to trigger WW3... he would have lost control already.

     If so, it'll only be because someone else is playing the part of Lucy holding the nuclear football.

     With Trump running the staffing arrangements, it's only a matter of time before someone doesn't pull it away correctly.

     @jamesmarshall I bet he did, for two reasons

     1. Libertarian has no consistent definition, so it's not like he has any standard to live up to.
     2. They're really all authoritarians anyway, and he's the biggest fascist figurehead they could ask for.

     @w7voa This is a gift to the Dems who can now accuse Trump of being soft on this criminal who hired a hitman, without saying anything harsh about drugs nor drug addicts.

     If Trump wins the Presidency, they need to livestream a head of lettuce to see whether it or Democracy will last longer.

     @w7voa this is actually a really interesting gambit. I don't know of another major party candidate in recent memory who has reached out to a minor party to get their nomination.
