We need to get Gary Johnson’s six percent to vote for Trump.
No Libertarian should help control freak Hillary become President.
Libertarians are about 1% of the vote.
Most of Johnson's voters aren't libertarians.
Life is funny....I raised my adult kids so “conservative” that they went over the deep end and became Ron Paul supporters.
That was actually fine with me when it was McCain or Romney that they ‘couldn’t’ vote for. Well, not fine exactly, but at least I could understand the principled stand against the uniparty.
But they don’t like Trump either. At least I know they will not vote for Clinton. They will probably stay home or write in Ron Paul.
It’s just hard to fathom. These are very bright, talented people with advanced degrees, successful careers and who are extremely articulate on matters of founding principles, the constitution and limited government.
They have lost all hope that the rigged party system can be saved, and just assume everything has to fall apart before a true statesman (like Ron Paul) can finally be elected. They just don’t see Trump as that statesman.
I blame the RINO republicans - for decades they have faked opposition to the left while secretly being leftists themselves. Now the younger generation is jaded and cynical about Republicans and rightly so.
Trump’s decision to run as a Republucan was probably right, but there are many smart and savvy conservatives (like my kids) who will never vote for a popular Republican - only a very unpopular Republican (Ron Paul) has ever won their trust. Ironically, it is his lack of popularity that makes him trustworthy to these kids.
I can understand that - I think Trump’s strongest endorsement is the huge and impressive list of enemies (democrats, republicans, media, academia, Hollywood, K street, Wall Street, the UN, they all hate him, so I like him more.
But my kids don’t see Trump that way - yet.
Oh well.
