      Sure, but that means on social issues (like the trans rights) he is very “progressive”.

          You clearly haven’t read the platform of the Libertarian party. It’s all about individual freedom, and it’s a good platform.

            I love individual freedom in general. But in my experience they tend to not be the most genuine about their beliefs in it. And I support ideas that they definitely dislike like taxation, collective action, business regulation, and Keynesian economic policy. Also I’ve struggled to take them seriously in part due to Gary Johnson being their most reasonable candidate.

              I voted for Gary as he was the best candidate who ran that year. Too bad he didn’t win, we would be in far better shape as a nation.
