Gary Johnson 'absolutely' stands by Weld's Holocaust reference to Trump plan
CNN ^ | 5/23/16 | Eugene Scott and David Wright

Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson said Monday he "absolutely" stands by his preferred running mate's comment comparing Donald Trump's immigration plan to Nazi Germany.

"Absolutely, absolutely. In New Mexico here, is my door going to be knocked down because I'm going to get checked for papers?" Johnson, who served as New Mexico's governor for two terms, when asked by CNN's Jake Tapper on "The Lead."

Former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld -- who is expected to be picked alongside Johnson to run on the Libertarian Party ticket at a nominating convention this weekend -- told The New York Times on Thursday that Trump's plan to remove the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants from the U.S. reminded him of "Kristallnacht," or the "Night of Broken Glass."

So by this logic Libertarians think they should also be able to go into other countries at will ? Isnt that also what Nazi did?

As long as Johnson’s mansion is left open as well to all comers, and his fridge is well stocked for them, A/c on, they probably want a lot of cable channels, in Spanish, and he keeps on paying, then he is consistent.

Keeping people out of a country is not the same as putting millions in ovens.


You nailed it. My forebears wanted the hell OUT of Nazi Germany but were (mostly) not allowed to escape death.

Umm, the plan is to send illegals back to their HOMES - and young illegals back to their parents... NOT to concentration camps..It might seem like a small difference to kooks, but it's a BIG difference. The only butt-kissers gullible enough to pass this idiocy on without thought are the butt kissers at the New York Times. They must love these guys... Front page tomorrow..

The Libertarian Party isn't libertarian. It's basically the GOPe on pot.

Libertarians think "unfettered" freedom is more powerful than nationalism in providing rights to people. For some strange reason, they ignore the organization of our enemies who corrupt out politicians, use our laws against us, and consequently rape and steal from us. Pot may well be the answer. programmed stupidity from leftwing educators is likely a bigger reason.
