Patriot Party (USA)

The Patriotic Party (PAT), usually referred to as Patriots is a nationalist political party based in the United States of America. It was founded in 2018 by a number of hard-right members of the now defunct Republican Party. The party holds nationalist and anti-globalist views, is in favour of protectionist policies and has a zero tolerance approach towards illegal immigration, as well as law and order.

The Party has been repeatedly criticised by political opponents and the media for promoting bigoted, islamophobic and even racist views, as well as conspiracy theories. The Liberal Party has, on several occasions, accused the Party of working for the Russian Government. Party leader Donald Trump rejects such allegations and calls them a 'witch hunt'.

History
Patriots held their first convention in May, 2018 to vote confirm Donald Trump as the Party's nominee for President in the 2018 United States General Election.

Donald Trump ran a negative campaign, accusing his opponents of being traitors to the country, being too weak on tackling immigration and has repeatedly called for building a wall on the US-Mexico border. He came forth in the presidential election and the Party came third in the Parliamentary election.
