Isn't that sorta his party's policy platform though?
General definition of Libertarian foreign policy: "Yeah, I know we've set up dictatorships all over the world and we're deeply embedded everywhere, but fuck those places let's focus on 'Merica."
In that regard Trump's a borderline Libertarian, now that I think about it. He wants to wall off the borders and avoid being in any sort of alliance or war with anyone and everyone.

Yes, and, you all are pissing me off that I have to say anything good about the Libertarian party at all
The funny thing is I consider myself a Libertarian.
But, I also acknowledge that at least two thirds of Libertarians are batshit crazy at the same time.
I'm not opposed to a lot of stuff that Libertarians believe in, but it's just not practical to hold those beliefs and think they'll work in actual practice.
To do so, like you've said, ignores a lot of our country's history. In a perfect world, yeah, let's live in La La Land, but this's the real world.

Someone I met last night defined his brand of Libertarian as, "I just want gay couples to have guns and be able to protect their marijuana plants."
BTW, that Clinton video from this morning is pretty crazy. They drag her feet across the ground and just throw her ragdoll body into a van. Turns out the wingnuts may actually be onto something about her health.
