      Key to remember: Mormons/Utahns have strongly disliked Trump all along—but this video has had a visceral effect. https://www.buzzfeed.com/mckaycoppins/mormons-vs-trump?utm_term=.ltw129njW#.uaBl0Owz1 …pic.twitter.com/TSYzGLU4Iv

          To be clear, Trump's still favored to win Utah—if only bc there's not enough time for others to make up ground—but risk of losing it is real

        Whatever. Trump is so unpopular with LDS voters, this hardly counts as a principled move. Rats, Ship, Sinking, etc.

        It'd be better if Hill wins Utah, but a McMullin win is also good.
