Presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump will deliver remarks at the Libertarian Party‘s national convention.
In a move that could help the former president win over third-party voters, Trump will speak to a group that traditionally enjoys close ties to Republicans later this month.
The Libertarian National Convention will be held May 23-26 at a hotel in Washington, D.C., and the party said it invited both Trump and President Joe Biden to participate, with Trump agreeing.
The tweet does not mention whether Biden has responded. The Washington Examiner has contacted the Biden campaign for comment.
With the theme of “Become Ungovernable,” the Libertarian Convention features a four-day schedule of events and concludes with the party selecting its own candidate for president.
Libertarian presidential candidates often hail from the GOP ranks, as their strict limited government approach aligns them closer to Republicans than Democrats. For example, 2008 Libertarian presidential nominee Bob Barr was a former GOP congressman from Georgia, while 2012 and 2016 nominee Gary Johnson was a former Republican governor of New Mexico.

The 2020 Libertarian candidate, Jo Jorgensen, finished with 1.2% of the national vote, in third place behind Biden and Trump.
Both major parties are concerned about the threat of third-party voters sinking their campaigns, with independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. rumored to be a threat to both in what is expected to be a close contest.
