“So what’s the point of the Libertarian Party getting 3 percent? Why risk letting this awful president destroy our country? He can get it done in a lot less than four years. It won’t take four years,” Trump added. “And that’s why I’m promising tonight that I’m going to put Libertarians in my Cabinet and I’m going to put Libertarians in senior positions.”
Trump’s promise to install libertarian officials in his administration won support from the crowd.
Some attendees were Trump supporters, but not all were fans of the former president. Some convention-goers handed out kazoos to party members who were instructed to interrupt Trump’s speech.
The convention descended into chaos on Friday night when delegates clashed ahead of President Trump’s speech.
