GOP Rep. Justin Amash on Sunday did not rule out a run for the White House in 2020 as a libertarian, but said it was "not on his radar." "I would never rule anything out," the Michigander said on CNN's "State of the Union." "That's not on my radar right now, but I think that it is important that we have someone in there who is presenting a vision for America that is different from what these two parties are presenting," he said. Amash is the chairman of the House Liberty Caucus, which represents libertarian-minded lawmakers. Amash, who was first elected as part of the tea party wave in 2010, notably did not endorse Donald Trump for president in 2016. Recently, he was one of 13 House Republicans who opposed the president's national emergency declaration. "Right now, we have a wild amount of partisan rhetoric on both sides and Congress is totally broken," Amash said Sunday. "We can't debate things in a clear way anymore. Everything has become, 'Do you like President Trump or do you not like President Trump?'" "I think that we need to return to basic American principles, talk about what we have in common as a people because I believe we have a lot in common as Americans," he added. "And try to move forward together, rather than fighting each other all the time." Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson was the Libertarian Party candidate in 2016. He got 4.489 million votes.

I think the LP has made a mistake with allowing GOP pols - especially has-been hacks like Bob Barr or William Weld - to be their nominees in recent elections. Rand Paul or Justin Amash would not be as bad and could credibly be called consistent libertarians.
Amash is a lunatic Muslim lover. Never ever.
I wouldn't panic just yet. Even if Amash was the LP candidate in 2020, he wouldn't do any better than Gary Johnson did in the last few elections. Chances are, he would do worse. Johnson had a record as a popular and fairly conservative GOP governor in a Blue state. Very few people even know who Amash is.
I will admit Amash gets it right sometimes. I used to kind of like him. Until he sided with the Muslims against our culture.
Kinda like Mia Love, right? Amash is one more Trojan Horse globalist. The GOPe's strategy was to run a bunch of Trojan Horse "conservatives"...then immediately flip their mask off once the voting in Congress began. Amash, Love (now gone) and countless "Republicans" are nothing but mercenary NWO-Globalists in disguise.
Then he defends the deep state.
See?? A puppet.
MbS,Trump, Kushner Wahhabi Suni Mooselimbs... the worst kind. MbS is getting nukes from the USA/Trump(R), just like the Shah of Iran got nukes from Gerry Ford(R).
ALL Mooslimbs are "THE WORST KIND." Don't kid yourself. Btw, you have to realize and acknowledge the fact that DJT not only doesn't actually make these kinds of decisions, but the coup launched by PTB against him is STILL IN EFFECT. (*If it wasn't, The Wall would already be up, the millions of Invaders NOT HERE, and The Hag already serving her Life Sentence for SEDITION, TREASON, MURDER, etc.) QUESTION: How could any decision possibly be more insane or dangerous than Barry 0dinga and his NWO puppet masters handing over $150 billion to Iran -- while letting those nuts continue working on their nukes?
