Trump Humiliated. Why did he go to the Libertarian convention?

Biden has had a successful presidency, but I worry a big gust of wind could blow him away.

@JudyEv At least he still make sense when he speaks, even if the dynamic range (a music term, to me) of his speech is near zero.

It is interesting why he went there. I guess people were telling him we have to expand our base or we will not win. They are the closest to Maga supporters. I do not think many people trust libertarians, why no one really takes them serious, but at least we finally saw people stand up for what they believe in. No caving in, no democrats say you have to think this way. I respected it, and glad Trump finally cannot lie his way out of that one.

They made the MAGA people go to the back rows. The crowd was booing and yelling, but the more he talked the quieter it got, and at the end of the speech, they were chanting We Want Trump. He found common ground with the crowd. He might be a little crude..like a LOT of New Yorkers I have met..BUT he really did have our economy going, and slowed down the border.

Nobody with common sense can have any idea about what Trump does or about why he does it. Probably we´d have to ask a psychiatrist.

@TheHorse I´m sorry, but no.

I´m sure that there´s a limit to your knowledge (my own eldest daughter is a psychologist). In this situation we need someone who knows all about the worst mental ailments. Pehaps someoneone with the power to put him in a straight jacket.

@marguicha I know about the worst mental illnesses, including schizophrenia. Trump is a malignant narcissist, and probably a sociopath.

Maybe because no one else seems to be interested in talking to Libertarians. Biden can't even GET a crowd HALF as big asTrump can. LOL I believe the news people said NO President since Reagan has even acknowledged The Bronx.. Someone said Biden had done such a Good Job..yeah..he is doing a Great job of getting America Invaded, spending money on foreigners with OUR tax dollars when a lot of Americans can not afford a place to live! Taking places and money from Americans to take care of Able Bodied MEN from other countries that should be staying where they are and help change their OWN country. I am not with ANY party..I am a Constitutionalist! And Biden has stepped all over our Constitution! My life and my Friends' lives were a LOT better with Trump than they have been with Biden...For SURE!
