The national media have been very aware of this issue.
So, plainly, is Mr. Trump.
And it should do nothing to help him in Utah and other Mormon-heavy areas that he’s evidently used his lack of support among Latter-day Saints as a tool for attempting to increase his support among Evangelicals:
Washington Post: “Trump makes play for evangelicals by noting his problems in Mormon-rich Utah”
(Significantly, Evangelicals already have supported Mr. Trump at a higher level than they supported Governor Romney. Obviously, they recognize a Christian when they see one.)
Anyway. Playing the religious bigotry card, the politics of division . . . These are among the many reasons that I decided, many months ago, that I could not, in good conscience, support Mr. Donald J. Trump for the presidency of the United States.
