Mary Matalin, GOP strategist, switches to Libertarian Party

Written by Teunis Felter

Mary Matalin registered as a Libertarian on Thursday (May 5), the Republican strategist and New Orleans resident said on MSNBC’s “With All Due Respect.”  “The Libertarian Party continues to represent those constitutional principles that I agree with,” Matalin told the show’s panel.  Matalin, who is married to former Bill Clinton adviser James Carville, didn’t connect her switch of parties with the rise of Donald Trump as the GOP’s presumptive nominee. She insisted she was a “provisional Trumpster” and said, “I will never vote for Hillary.”
