How do you have 'radical isolationism' and 'unrestricted trade' at the same time?

Economic isolationism and political isolationism are two different things.

For example a country "A" can trade freely with another country "B" or country "A" can remove the two-bit dictator of country "B" and then trade with that country.

My opinion: Both types of isolationism are off the mark.

Which opposite do they support: 'open borders', or 'radical isolationism'?

How do you have 'radical isolationism' and 'unrestricted trade' at the same time?

And why would opponents of big government want "unrestricted control of the environment by government"?

Obviously, none of the above are actually libertarian principles, -- principles that are indeed based on the Constitution.
The Libertarian Party does not speak for US libertarians, on that we can agree.
