Just the usual transactional stuff that is his whole approach with everything. “I hear you guys like x, y, and z. Support me and I’ll do x, y and z just for you, even though I’ve never given shit one about those things before.” What he didn’t realize is that Libertarians don’t like being told what to do, unless maybe it’s coming from a genuine Libertarian. They didn’t even want to support RFKJ, you’d think he would have done better than 2% of delegates in the first round of nominations.

A fair number of them have Ayn Rand brain worms and believe implicitly that laissez-faire capitalism is the zenith of human perfection and if only it were fully embraced humanity would attain dizzying heights and not incidentally, they would become the unfettered masters of this world. It's a sickness.

How much truth is there to the idea that there has been some kind of takeover or attempted takeover of the Libertarian party to bring them more explicitly under the umbrella of either Republican apparatus and/or Trump world? (thinking of CO and NH in particular but prresumably nationally). Heard there had been some kind of mini civil war over this and that membership has dropped a lot, but I'm not that au fait with subject matter and haven't looked into)

again I don't think we ever got a satisfactory answer as to why Trump would take massive amounts of classified docs with him into his house
Because they are status symbols that he can use to impress people. Like thousands of pricks who have a picture of themselves with him on their wall.
and why he tried to hard to avoid giving them back
Because he does not like being told what to do, ever, under any circumstances.

On June 19, 2023, Trump was interviewed by Bret Baier of Fox News. When Baier asked why he hadn't simply handed over his boxes, Trump said he worried they might contain "golf shirts, clothing, pants, shoes".

uh, he’s stupid vain, but i truly expect he thinks he can somehow profit off or use those docs. not necessarily in a “i have a devious genius plan” way, but in a “some assets have actual value, some ppl think i have a claim, i can persuade some people to believe they’re mine, fuck u they’re mine” way. i even think not to understand this makes one naive, not cooly jaded or hip to trumps idiocy. i could be wrong, because the guy is really dumb, but he is usually motivated and it is often not mere vanity.

I still can't get over that the last witness for the defense was the shambling and out of control Costello and that Trump thought that he would be a very good witness, a masterstroke. Seeing the court getting cleared out and hearing that Merchan was informing him that he is in contempt and his testimony would be stricken from the record if he continued in the same the vein. Any hyper-impartial jurors (if there is such a thing) that are earnestly trying to follow the evidence and forget who the man is, he's been reminding them every day who he is. And that was the icing on the cake.

right but who exactly would classified docs have value to, especially the apparently top secret stuff he was stealing
i mean you're probably right, Trump's thought process has always tended to be even dumber than you'd assume, if he actually had some plan to betray America it probably would be revealed by now since he can't keep anything secret, then again he did seem to admit that he had some deal in place with Putin for this journalist or that he was trying to make one, idk all this shit is just weird

Wasn’t one of his motives for holding onto docs that he wanted them as evidence against critics like Gen. Milley?

Another excuse from his camp was that they thought it was all unused stationary and envelopes that they could offer up as collectables to donors...so, government documents they could sell.
