What this shows is that Trump’s entire team doesn’t really understand what Libertarian is. Kennedy seemed to understand, but his politics obviously don’t align.
Then again, personally I put Libertarianism in the same camp as Communism as far as ideologies that are great in theory, but handwave the human factor away. The trick is in how to avoid authoritarianism while still being realistic about how humans behave individually and in groups.
