Libertarians for Trump, Revisited

• https://www.lewrockwell.com, By Walter E. Block

My thought, though, was that out of all the Republican candidates, he was the most libertarian on foreign policy. He was the least likely to get us into World War III.  And, thanks to the tutelage I had received over the years from the likes of Murray Rothbard, Ralph Raico and Bob Higgs, I knew that imperialism, foreign aggression, were more of a threat to liberty than were violations of economic or personal liberty rights.

[[I pause for a "commercial" message: here is our Twitter handle: @DTLibertarians]] Now, back to our regular programming:

I was brought to these thoughts by this excellent article:

Miller, Donald W, Jr. 2016. "Trump: Our Only Hope for Escaping World War III." March 9

Because of this very important essay, I wrote one of my own in this vein:

Block, Walter E. 2016.  "Libertarians for Trump." March 15;

Whereupon I asked my then acquaintance, and now friend, Dr. Donald Miller if he would join with me in starting up a group to be called Libertarians for Trump (LFT). He quickly and enthusiastically agreed to do so.
