Serves him right, the Republicans are turning a blind eye to the Dump and they are starting to feel the wrath of the American people who demand better. This is just the start of a movement, not just with Liberals either.
This is part of the liberal hissy fit lingering across the country. Utah is a unique environment. Heavily conservative Mormon, but.....you have a population of liberal anti-Mormons who are active and vile. My guess is 95% of the people at these town halls in Utah would be those people. The good part is they cant win any elections, at least for now...
What state was it, Wisconsin or Michigan where everyone thought the governor would not be reelected because of the huge protests. It turned out he won, because it is easy to gather a crowd of few hundred angry liberals, but what really counts is the votes when thousands of votes matter.
This ain't a screaming contest kids, this is big boy stuff.
Clinton won 14% of the vote in Utah County which is the most populated county in his district.
She won 28,000 out 203,000 votes in the county. In my opinion, a couple hundred upset people in a congressional district disagreeing with the congressman doesn't change that it is a very, very conservative district.
A couple hundred upset people in his district being disorderly and disrespectful is what it is more then anything. The angry people who went to the congressmen's town hall represent like 1/10th of a percentage of the voters in his district if that.
This was more than a couple hundred people. Hundreds were outside. A friend posted on Facebook that they were turned away since the place was full. Also, do remember that 22% of the votes here went for McMullin. It's not all "liberal outrage" or whatever. So many people didn't like Trump, but felt like they had to vote for him because of abortion/Supreme Court. Trump is not quite so loved here, and I sure hope Chaffetz is voted out too. Bleh.
Townhall wasn't in Utah County...was in a high school in Salt Lake County.

Yup the McMullin crowd was definitely in the house.
