Former President Donald Trump is set to make a historic appearance at the Libertarian party’s national convention, according to Libertarian party chair Angela McArdle. She expressed the significance of this opportunity to promote the message of liberty.
McArdle highlighted the efforts of the Libertarian Party over the past 53 years to have their candidates participate in major party Presidential debates. This year, they have successfully invited Trump to speak at their convention, indicating a shift in the norm.
She emphasized the importance of using this platform to advocate for liberty and discuss key issues such as ending endless wars and addressing inflation. McArdle mentioned that Trump will address topics important to Libertarians and seek their votes, noting that Libertarians have their own candidate for the upcoming election.
The focus on government spending was underscored as a critical issue, with McArdle explaining how cutting spending could lead to positive changes in various areas such as reducing the spying apparatus and ending overseas wars.
McArdle also expressed the Libertarian Party’s desire to bring Republicans and conservatives back to discussing conservative issues and stressed the importance of these discussions in the election. She mentioned wanting to hear Trump’s plans regarding conflicts in countries like Israel and Ukraine.
Overall, McArdle reiterated the party’s commitment to promoting libertarian ideals and shifting the narrative towards freedom. The opportunity to have Trump speak at their convention was seen as a positive step in achieving these goals.
