Donald Trump, the former US president, has suffered the rare humiliation of getting booed and heckled during a raucous speech to the Libertarian Party National Convention. Watch in for more details!

US: Donald Trump booed at Libertarian convention

Following their respective speeches at the party convention, the Libertarian Party on Sunday rejected former President Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and nominated&nbsp;party activist Chase Oliver for president.

Only six party members voted for Trump, the presumed Republican Party presidential nominee who was a write-in for the Libertarians.

The Libertarian Party, which was formed in 1971 and supports civil liberties and capitalism free from government supervision, is the third-largest American political party by voter registration, but does not have a great deal of influence in American politics. It typically garners around 3 per cent of the national vote and has few elected officials.

Founded in 1971, the Libertarian Party is the third-largest political party in the United States based on voter registration, but it has little power in American politics. The party's ideology includes civil liberties and capitalism free from government supervision. It has few elected representatives and generally receives around 3% of the national vote.

Before the party members selected their choice for president on Sunday, Trump addressed the convention on Saturday night. During his speech, he was repeatedly heckled. In the event's half-century history, he was the first former president to speak at the about 1,000-person gathering, which took place at the Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C.

<h2>How did Trump react to his loss?</h2>

In a post on his social media site Truth Social, Trump stated that if he had "wanted it," he "would have absolutely gotten" the Libertarian nomination.

"The reason I didn't file paperwork for the Libertarian Nomination, which I would have absolutely gotten if I wanted it (as everyone could tell by the enthusiasm of the Crowd last night!), was the fact that, as the Republican Nominee, I am not allowed to have the Nomination of another Party. Regardless, I believe I will get a Majority of the Libertarian Votes," he wrote.

<h2>Who is&nbsp;Chase Oliver?</h2>

Following seven rounds of voting, Chase Oliver, a candidate for the Georgia Senate in 2022, secured the Libertarian candidacy with a vote total of more than 60 per cent.

“We did it! I am officially the presidential nominee,” Oliver posted Sunday on X. “It’s time to unify and move forward for liberty.”

In the next presidential election in November, Oliver will take against &nbsp;Joe Biden and Trump, the current president and potential Republican&nbsp;nominee.
