I like this article:

Perhaps because I tend to like most people.

 

I very much regret the rancor and disdain and refusal to compromise that poison American politics today.

 

That’s one of the reasons that I find Trumpism so off-putting.  As I’ve explained many times, I have very strong conservative beliefs, shading into libertarianism (especially on economic policy), but I don’t hate those who disagree with me.

 

(Nor, for the record, do I hate non-Mormons, ex-Mormons, Heartlanders, anti-Mormons, or fans of reality television.)

 

I wish that more Americans shared the spirit that seems to characterize this Congresswoman.
