Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson said he is comfortable with his decision to run even if he turns out to take votes from Democrat Hillary Clinton — securing a victory for Republican Donald Trump.

“If, in fact, your candidacy helps Donald Trump become president of the United States, are you comfortable with that?” Couric asked.

“Here’s what I’m comfortable with,” he said, “is that right now I am leading among independents and right now 50 percent of Americans who are going to register to vote are registering as independents. 50 percent! That’s amazing. Where’s their representation? Well, right now, I’m leading in that category.”

He also said he’s tied with Clinton among millennials and predicted that he may even surpass her for youth support by Nov. 8. But Couric returned to her initial concern about being a spoiler candidate.

“If that doesn’t happen, governor, though,” she said, “and let’s just say you are siphoning votes primarily from Hillary Clinton and you help put Donald Trump over the finish line, will you feel comfortable with that?”

“I’m feeling really comfortable about offering people their first vote,” he responded.

Couric beseeched Johnson to answer her question, and he insisted that he was. He started to say that it’s irrelevant whether or not his campaign inadvertently helps Trump, before finally acquiescing.

“Absolutely, Katie. Absolutely. I’m going to sleep well at night. I could[n’t] care less about Democrats and Republicans. I think they’ve lost touch with America.”

Johnson is literally the worst candidate out of all four

Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~

He's a nice guy, although he gets stuck in the programming of preaching his politics like any politician does. Very athletic. Vegan.

It was either that or some other restrictive diet like eschewing gluten. I know it was not because he had an actual problem but because he was doing it to be healthier, like some athletes do. 

The current campaign is making him look stupider than I knew him to be, and he looks/is behaving a lot older too.

Oh okay, I'm vegan, so I was just curious. 

I think he seems like a smart guy
