    That stood out to me, too:

    If the presidential election were held today – with the same candidates – I would sit out. I would not vote for Chase Oliver, the 2024 Libertarian Party’s presidential nominee, because he is way too left-wing and alienating to a lot of libertarians. That’s why so many went to Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

      Reading it again, I caught something I hadn’t before:

      “I would sit out.”

      Not, “I would vote against Trump”, but “I would do nothing, allow this to play out exactly like it is, and be able to say it’s not my fault.”
