    How was he even planning to win them over? He’s not even a conservative Republican. Libertarians are split down the middle between Democrat and Republican, sharing the Democrat’s stance on civil liberty, and Republican’s stance on fiscal conservatism. Depending on an individual’s weight on social vs. economic policy, coupled with the well lubricated authoritarian slip n’ slide of the right, there’s honestly a better chance we’d see some defect left.

      He’s doing anything he can to attempt to gain power again. Bad ideas. Good ideas. I imagine he’s spaghetti throwing at the wall hoping something sticks.

      And I’m hoping something sticks his ass in jail. 😆

        Because if nothing sticks, man the justice system is going to fucking grind his ass up. That or he flees the country. That man has used nearly every delay tactic the justice system can afford a person. A two time loser is going to have a very difficult time convincing them to give him a third chance.

      No problem, he’s got it all figured out.

      He’ll tell them he’s being hassled in court by the gummit - which they obviously don’t like. See. THEN - okay here’s that patented trump jenius coming out: Then he tells them “If I wasn’t a Libertarian before - I AM NOW!!” which he expected to get a huge ovation for but got mostly a half-second of “wtf” followed by a louder version of whatever it was he was getting before.
