Libertarian Party to me is an intellectual fraud.

As long as they are pro abortion they are flat out liars and intellectually dishonest.

Liberty’s very definition is to be free from oppression. That means, your rights can never be used to oppress another... To claim your “liberty” allows you to oppress another human being and deny them their inalienable right to life... is a complete blasphemy to the very concept of liberty.

Until the libertarian party is willing to be intellectually honest on that issue, it remains nothing more than a bunch of folks stuck in selfish teenage world view mode.

Now do the (R)N(C) whom funds PP while lying to your face re: over-turning (aka returning to the States) RvW; numerous years of FULL (R) control of D.C. & ZERO done re: illegals, budget\debt...let alone ‘smaller govt’. Stones. Glass houses, no?

Fact, the (R)N(C) gave us Constitutional violations of: NSA, Patriot Act, TSA, NCLB, $1T+ deficits, cheap-labor express & support of the continuing coup (ZERO push-back, ZERO subpoenas\committees) and, BEST of all, Socialism+ being looked upon favorably by the majority.

Maybe, IF/when the (R)N(C) ran candidates that actually adhere/follow their own platform (let alone the CONSTITUTION), we ‘fringe’ electorate would be glad to pull the lever for your candidate.

But, please, continue w/ the ‘lesser of 2 evils’ logical fallacy....it’s been “working” SWIMMINGLY so well these last 40yrs+ that I can see *rolls eyes*

So, while I’ll happily ply changing the (L) party in the *FEW* instances where they are wrong (abortion), it’s a MUCH smaller gap to close than the chasm of the ‘flat out liars & intellectually dishonest’ (R)N(C)
