No. Simply wrong. People who voted for rabid Democrats and gutless Republicans gave us what we’ve got. Good and hard. Libertarians are irrelevant. Delusional thinking and scapegoating.

it depends what assumptions you make about the Libertarian voters. If they instead had voted for one of the two major parties, would more have supported Trump than Biden?

Some Libertarian, Green party, etc. voters, equally despise each of the two major parties, and take the position that, they don’t like either, and don’t care which of the two major parties wins an election.

Heck, even here on Free Republic, there is a heck of a lot of criticism of the Republican party, and some say it’s just as well a Democrat wins election rather than a “RINO” type Republican.

So would Libertarians have voted more for Trump, if compelled to make a choice of one of the two major parties candidates?

I lean strongly libertarian, and in Massachusetts can probably safely cast a libertarian protest ballot, with no danger of it affecting the outcome. I still hold my nose and vote Republican.

Always vote for the least awful viable candidate.
