[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the support for Gary Johnson and Libertarian party's support declines because of the Aleppo faux pas, who would benefit more: Trump or Clinton?

Is there any reliable statistic as to who the Libertarian support draws support from?[/quote]

There's no way it helps Trump. Those who are committed Libertarians aren't going to abandon Johnson over this, because they believe we shouldn't be there anyway, and who cares if he knows what Aleppo is if we're pulling out from there entirely anyway? For those for whom Johnson is a protest vote because they hate both candidates, they're not going to abandon them over this because, in their mind, this is no where near as bad as the awful things they believe Trump and Clinton have done/will do. The people who will care about this are people who are making a serious effort to critically evaluate the candidates and figure out who is most qualified and competent to lead, and believed Johnson to be both qualified and competent without all of the baggage and liability of Trump or Clinton. If this mistake is enough to make them question Johnson's competence, there's no way they're going to switch to the even more ignorant Trump. They'll hold their noses and vote for Clinton because at least she's well-educated about what's going on around the world.[/quote]
