    Yeah this is what concerns me about him from an electoral perspective; it looks like he may pull from democrats moreso than republicans, thereby enabling the authoritarian candidate.

      He does actually, first time the Libertarians have done that since Bush’s first term. Huge flip as prior the party was getting further and further right. It’s like 60-40 right now.

      It’s also tanked them in the polls, 0.5 right now compared to 1.1 for Jill Stein and 0.8 for Cornell West.

      (Also RFK swung hard to the right in the polling after Biden left so unless something happen with him I wouldn’t worry about the Libertarians. They’re moving in a direction most of this sub would agree with otherwise)
