Utah (and Idaho too) will vote Republican. They can talk and say "we
will never support Trump"... but at the end of the day, both states will
be Red... as always.
I personally have wanted to get rid of the political parties for a LONG
time... let each candidate say what he will do on every subject, and not
be associated with these "parties" that really don't mean anything
anymore. Republicans used to believe "this", but now, 20 years later,
they now believe "this". The parties have no real value or benefit,
other than to keep thousands of people employed.

Have you been watching the news?
It’s a big deal, and I believe they are right, Utah won’t stand for Trump.
Even if it’s Hilary.
And I think Utah in general would be just fine with a Woman president,
but maybe I’m wrong.

It's funny that everyone says "You can't say that and win"... yet Utah
has voted Republican for the last 10 elections (40 years). I think
it's a lot like Idaho, that many people check the first "Republican"
box on the first page, and never turn the book to even see who that is
or what they even stand for.
Do you really think if Trump wins the nomination that Utah would vote
for Hillary over Trump? A woman as President, in a state of 50%
Mormon, where they don't allow women to hold any real leadership
positions?
Trump knows he has Utah and Idaho because they have voted Red for the
last 40 years.

IMO A chief executive should have some experience with the
legislative process and some military experience.
Foreign policy experience would be something I would look for on a
resume.
Trump has been saying that he doesn’t really mean or believe some
of the hyperbolic things that have came out of his mouth.
I know the Lt. Gov fairly well here in Utah. His family are 100
year ILEC owners. Have known them for years.
This is what he said after the Trump speech:
"I need to say this, OK, ...and last night Donald Trump did
something and said something that I never thought I'd see a
candidate for president do and say, especially someone in the
Republican Party."
"Think about that for a second," Cox told the crowd. "A person
running for office, in our party, thinks it's OK that if you
question his politics, he can question your religion. I have a
message for the 3 million people in Utah for Mr. Donald Trump:
That's not how we roll in Utah, and that's not how we roll in the
United States of America."

It's time for a change... that's the bottom line. Everyone else
running is a "lifer"... someone that has been in politics or has
wanted to be, their entire life. Nobody else is going to make any
REAL changes. It's time for something different.
It's also refreshing to have someone say what they REALLY think...
instead of giving lip service for six months before the election,
and then having them not do anything that they said. At least
Trump is saying what he thinks.

Even some Mennonite folks I spoke with in Cauthemoc think
Trump is bad for US.

Latest polls in Utah show:
Utah, collectively, votes “anyone but Trump”.
(Things were not looking great for him but he really
shot his own dick off on Friday).
Polls now show, if Trump is the other candidate, he
loses.
No matter if it is Hillary, Bernie, Ted...
Gotta love Utah!
