The Libertarian Party is not libertarian.

Libertarians are for less government, less laws, and more Liberty!!!

The so called libertarian Party does not seem to be for liberty but seems to be coveted by liberals.

Exactly. I considered Gary Johnson in 2016 in part because Trump often portrayed himself as a big government Republican. (i.e. I'll get rid of Obamacare and replace it with something more beautiful.) Then Gary Johnson, the so-called small government candidate, came out in favor of more carbon taxes. That's the #1 reason I voted for Trump -- he was the only one on the general ballot against more carbon taxes.

People like to say the libertarian’s party doesn’t represent libertarians so they can never be pinned to a platform.

A libertarian likes to be able to shape his arguments for whichever audience he is trying to convince.
