Wow. Once he got booed, he turned on them pretty quickly.
Yup. That's Trump for ya. Only cares about himself.
What a nice guy he is: well, you were ugly anyway!
I'm really surprised no one has thrown a shoe at him
Well if they're libertarians, they're gonna openly boo him while secretly voting for him.
"We also want to be racist and stomp on the working class, but we also still want to smoke weed." - that about sums them up. They got me because of that single issue back in the Ron Paul days before I looked deeper into everything else they were about.
Then I discovered libertarian socialism, when the whole Occupy Wallstreet thing went down. I liked that one better. Couldn't figure out why America's official "Libertarian" party were being such asskissers to capitalist power.

Because money, of course.
There at too many words for me to keep track of. Can someone tell me the difference between a libertarian and a conservative? Cuz I've always been under the impression that libertarians are just rebranded conservatives, which also makes them mostly blue collar (in my mind). Is that not true? Your comment would make me think it isn't, which confuses me because (in my mind) that would mean they're stomping on themselves unless they aren't blue collar. Or are we not considering blue collar workers a part of the working class?
Genuine questions, I'm not trying to be an asshole I just want to understand.
U.S. Libertarians are typically non-authoratarian right-wingers; unless the authority is business.
U.S. libertarians can be fairly radical (not conservative) in opposing pretty much everything the state does outside of operating a legal framework conducive to business. They support near zero business regulations, and as few laws as possible. A U.S. libertarian would typically be against stuff like bathroom laws, public schools, and the EPA. They typically revere Ayn Rand, and often debate age of consent laws.
Also, there is now a Mises caucus within the Libertarian party that is fascist (not conservative). They are the ones who invited Trump. TBF, the Republican party is fascist and not conservative anymore either.
Libertarians want everyone to be allowed to rape underage children, conservatives want it limited to priests, police, and politicians.
When even the crazies boo you, it's time to think about your life choices
It's all an act. Libertarians are just Republicans who don't want to admit it. They'll boo him publicly, but they will vote for him
He isn’t wrong As a libertarian conservative I vote Republican because I don’t want to waste my vote on candidates who have no chance…and hell will freeze over before I’ll support the totalitarian minded socialist party that the Democrats have warped into!
Ding ding ding.
He's so obviously not prepared to deal with anyone but sycophants.
He's trying to convince everyone like it's a business deal. Like he has some leverage on them.
Dumbass can’t even pronounce the name of the party correctly.
LIBATARIAN
Ross Ulbricht is incarcerated for creating Silk Road, a dark web commerce platform that was completely free of regulation.
Trump is indicted on 88 counts of illegally serving his own self interest at the expense of the American people.
They are not the same.
