I guess Trump really is a uniter.
Change of perspective is my guess. Libertarians are usually fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Obama was for the most part socially liberal and the main complaints from Libertarians during his Presidency were with fiscal issues. Trump isn't really either fiscally conservative or socially liberal, so you'll likely find Libertarians complaining more loudly during his Presidency.
The Koch's have no trouble aligning with the fundie religious right when it means their economic views become policy. They did set up the Teahadists after all, and were big pals to the likes of Falwell and Robertson.
I'd say it's more of a case they're getting worried to access to Chinese slave labour being cut.
