How to i send bitcoin even though i have 0 unspent transactions
I am looking at broadcasting a transaction to the blockchain that will never get confirmed because there is no bitcoin to send
impossible. I you want to try how broadcasting works, then use Testnet, and request some free testnet coins.
I saw an application where you could send bitcoin to an address, but the transaction never gets confirmation on the block chain. So I am trying to recreate the application using python. So I was wondering how one can send a broadcast a transaction to the blockchain that will never get a confirmation.
Thanks.

Most invalid transactions will get rejected at the pushtx APIs.
You might have to run a Bitcoin daemon to try pushing something invalid, and it'll just get dropped.
You could try to use previously spent inputs and push that, maybe.
Thank you for you help, but I was wondering if you can help me with a python code example on how to do this, or you can show me some apis to use. I would really appreciate it. Am just looking to learn more.
Thank you for your time.

No, this is not possible. It will be rejected if it is not a valid transaction. And if you have 0 bitcoin you can not make a valid transaction.
