    One of the oddities is how many and how hard Never Trumpers have become woke like this. I check out a lot of their content and it’s definitely a theme.

    We don’t really know anything about Trump’s policies, not really, because they change day to day.

    @Auriaprottu here’s another piece of evidence that Trump’s strategy isn’t to get to 270, but to win after that.

    I hate to say, I've never seen him not be an asshole when he doesn't. At least there's some level of comedy when he's like this.

    Given his dad wants to be a whale psychiatrist, it's hard to imagine how he could have turned out anything other than what he's like.

    It was very generic. Did not speak directly to Mormons, but to faith in general. Will not move any voters.

    Y’all remember dissecting what Trump meant about Liz Cheney having 9 rifles pointed at her face?

    What could she say directly to Mormons? She’s not a believer. It would probably sound presumptuous.

    Anyway, the fact that she responded and Trump did not might move a few fence sitters. Even if only 2%, that’s 8000 voters, which is close to the 2020 difference between Biden and Trump in Arizona.

    Mormons are very pro immigration.

    Section 26
    There are numerous Mormon-specific doctrines and even speech by its top leaders in fairly recent history she could have made token reference to, that would have made it somewhat personal.

    She could have spoken directly to Mormon women as well, who are getting fairly browbeat for asserting their importance and individuality. Mormons have a pretty distinct church-speak. Using any of the tried and true lines would at least resonate, instead of a boilerplate Christian message.

    @Sounders78 could have drunk-crafted a better response. If the hope is to move anyone who reads the deseret news (not very many persuadable readers there), this would not do it. Trump’s non-response won’t even register.

    I think saying anything positive about immigration might help with Mormons, but hurt her just about everywhere else.
