Is it time for Libertarians to say I told you so about Donald Trump?

And what did we think of Bad Bunny and the controversy about the Super Bowl halftime show?

Welcome to the Reason Roundtable.

This is your Libertarian Review of News and Culture from the editors of Reason magazine.

I'm Peter Souterman.

I'm your host.

And today I am joined by my colleagues,

Catherine Mangu Ward, Matt Welch, and Nick Gillespie. Happy Monday, everybody. We all enjoy the

Super Bowl. Yeah? Yay. It's a good day for America whenever the Boston teams lose.

I'll tell you why it's a good day for America is because Catherine Mangy Ward has a really

excellent piece, not on the Super Bowl, but on Libertarians and Donald Trump in the New York Times.

This is a great piece.

Long, it's meaty.

But fundamentally, it is about why libertarians are right about everything. And we've been telling you that we're right about everything for a long time. And you should listen to us. And sorry, Catherine, you want to tell us more about this piece? Yeah, I think the most important thing to know about this piece is that I actually filed it before the whole ice situation really came to a head.

Descended on Washington. So it was actually, it was one of these things where it was like, oh, I filed that it was sitting around. And then they were like, oh, it seems like the thesis of this piece turned out to be even more true than we thought, could you put a new top on it and we're going to run it. And yeah, it was fun to write. I don't know. As a journalist,

it's pretty hard to say no when somebody emails you and is like, hey, do you want to write

about how you were right about everything? Like, I'm going to say yes to that pretty much every

time. Okay, but like tell us a little bit more about the argument here about sort of you made a,

what I thought was interesting was you made a

qualified argument about Donald Trump being bad it was very specific it was on speech immigration

and trade you said Trump is a libertarian nightmare now that's that covers a lot of things though

right I mean why not just sort of go whole hog and say, on everything Donald Trump, we are living in a libertarian nightmare?
