The fact that Johnson explicitly said that private entities, including the self-employed, getnoo religious freedom first amendment protections and have to “bake the cake” because he is okay with outlawing discrimination, shows he has no interest the the underlying principle of libertarianism, and in fact puts no check on the state’s authority over any man’s life.

Agree. Johnson is neither a libertarian nor a Constitutionalist. He's mostly just a liberal Democrat who wants a tax cut. Johnson says some things that I agree with (opposing the Patriot Act, decriminalizing some drugs), but that isn't nearly enough to outweigh his negatives on nearly everything else.
