Long before Trump, I was working a Democratic campaign, knocking on doors of Republican women and independents. I had one "independent" tell me he couldn't vote for a Democrat because he was an independent. Libertarians and independents always vote Republican.

And anyone calling themselves a Libertarian who votes for this is a lying clown even more than the "independent" ones.

I am an independent and always have been and I vote usually for Democrats including Kamala Harris. So this is not true.

I don’t trust either party establishment at all, but I recognize Harris was the lesser of two evils by far (and still a terrible candidate imo). 

So I am firmly an independent, but not a Trump voter by any stretch. There are a lot of people like me. I even know Republicans who just didn’t vote because they also hate Trump.
