I love Utah politics

[Eddie]

I just got a text from Dr. Mason, running against incumbent Ray Ward for the Utah House.

He says "You deserve true conservative representation. You deserve me."

Yeah - not hard to believe this guy is a Trump supporter. He has the talking points down.

Fus is the one who apparently believes the only explanation for my family and friends not neatly fitting into his narrow "voted for Trump = believe the election was stolen" worldview, is that they are collectively lying to me.

I’m saying the polling after J6 has consistently shown GOP/Trump folks at around 70% believe the election was stolen. Something like 55% of Utah GOP folks want him to run again.

Like I said maybe you sit in an unusual place where all your friends and family who voted for Trump are part of the 30% who believe in reality, or the mere 25% of Utahns who do not want him to run again, but statistically that isn’t probable.

As someone who grew up in Utah it’s highly disappointing people I admire and look up to continue to subjugate their political identify to a conman who attempted to destroy the American experiment.

How does being disappointed in someone equate to writing off a person completely? I have a lot of people in my orbit that I love but disappoint me nonetheless. My father watched Hannity every night until he died. I loved him, but there was a lot about him that disappointed me and a lot about him that I didn't respect. I don't think Fus is the one guilty of being overly binary in the exchange.

Its interesting how you are able to take one sliver of a person and then write them off completely because of it.
