As a supporter of the Libertarian Party I have been accused of wasting my vote. Today the tables are turned with many Republicans regretting their 2016 vote for Donald Trump, particularly since the Libertarian Candidates at the time were two former successful Republican governors, Gary Johnson of New Mexico and William Weld of Massachusetts, of normally Democrat States. I believe Weld can be credited for turning back a Democrat rule run amuck, something that Connecticut never got.
This year our candidate for President is Jo Jorgenson, frankly not a credible candidate nevertheless a useful marker for Constitution loving conservatives who favor small government and market solutions unable to vote for Joe Biden. Post election the Libertarian Party may become the refuge for conservatives to resurrect the values of honor, prudence and good manners from the ashes Trump leaves behind and retrieve the moral authority to oppose Democrat overreach.
