In 2016 I voted libertarian. I liked Trump but wasn’t 100% sold and didn’t have confidence in the establishment Republicans. Looking at the vote totals most states had Gary Johnson at 3%. In MN, for example, it was 3.8%.

Trump has been the most libertarian president we’ve had. That being said, I’m assuming most libertarians would switch to Trump for 2020, I certainly am. If that’s the case he’d pick up a few extra states while holding onto the ones he flipped. That mixed with the massive amount of people walking away from the dems we may be looking at a landslide victory.

I haven’t heard any commentators, or anybody, speak to this point. Is it just me? What do you all think?

I didn't mean your post, sorry. But anytime someone says "Libertarian", people from both parties show up and call us stupid, morons, destructive, dangerous, we should just suck it up and vote for their guy/gal, mock the idea of voting on principals, etc. And, inevitably, it will end with us being told "You can vote that way NEXT time. THIS time it's far too important". I've heard that every 2 years, without fail, ever since the very first year I voted.

It's annoying as hell, lol.
