This is a repeated habit from supposedly principled people (who often complain about Democrat standards of behaviour) that are going to vote for Trump.
"The greatest damage to democratic norms since the Civil War? Who cares?!?! He says he'll end all the wars and he'll get rid of the immigrants and end inflation! I couldn't POSSIBLY comment on Trump's political history though."
- consteval 2y agoYou're right of course but this isn't really the place to do it. Libertarians are, first and foremost, cowards. Trying to get them to actually tell you their political views is like trying to extract sugar from a stick of gum. There's no point in trying, just assume they're being dishonest about their positions on democracy and assume they'll vote for the candidate who threatens democracy. This election is already, more or less, completely fucked. Nobody is really approaching it in a reasonable way. Everyone, even on the left to an extent, just pretends that Trump hasn't repeatedly and continuously tried to threaten democracy. Instead, we're talking about who cackles more or how black Kamala is. So, at this point don't bother. Those who understand the threat to the US' legitimacy understand it, and those who don't, don't.
