You're Disqualified!
Helping to destroy several countries isn't disqualifying for the presidency. Being an authoritarian narcissist ignoramus isn't disqualifying either. But failing to recognize, apart from any context, the name of a Syrian city (which sounds like "a leppo") or failing to have the name of an admirable world "leader" on the tip of one's tongue -- now that's disqualifying! What Johnson qualified for? Presiding over a scaling back of the state. For the pundits, of course, that job is not worthy of consideration, nor is any candidate for it.

This time it looks like they are afraid he'll take Hilary votes.
But the big problem has always been that he's not really a libertarian. The answer to the racists is not to keep sputtering about racism, but to admit that even racists should have freedom of association and private property. But since Johnson seems okay with taking away freedom of association and private property from Christian cake bakers, he's not really providing the libertarian alternative.
But he's providing a democrat one, hence the sudden spate of 'gotcha' journalism.
