MX Linux

Huge dev team that has made it a really easy user experience.  It's very easy 
to build a Live USB (Xfce).  And the MX Package Installer simplifies adding 
many popular applications.  TDE can be added to the MXPI

If you're interested, I'll ask in the MX forum what the steps would be to add 
TDE to their Live USB.

Best,
