Behind the “Mormon mafia” feud: Evan McMullin’s anti-Trump candidacy splits Republicans [tr]

That said, among his fellow Mormons, there appears to be a lot of interest in the former Republican congressional staffer’s candidacy. In a Utah survey released over the weekend by the Salt Lake Tribune, McMullin trailed Republican nominee Donald Trump by just 2 percent, within the poll’s margin of error.

.
McMullin has also polled in the low double-digits in neighboring Idaho, ahead of Johnson’s 4 percent. It’s even possible that his support could be higher than surveys are indicating, since many pollsters don’t include him in their questionnaires.

All of this means that everything is going to plan for the diehard Trump opponents who are bankrolling and staffing this long-shot presidential campaign.

Looking at 538, McMuffin has all of an 18% chance of winning Utah. That’s pretty f-ing sad for a one-state candidate.

Mitt has cost us too much already. If Hillary wins because of this BS, I would want all the muslims being imported here be sent to Utah.

Egg McMuffin is trying to make Mormons as popular as they were after the Mountain Meadows Massacre.

President Trump should remove their tax exempt status.

Mormonism is a freaking insane cult that does not deserve to be labeled a ‘religion’. As evidence I will give you Glen Beck. Nuff said.

It’s a badly needed split and good it’s visible

* Those who want Trump (conservatives, republicans,...)
* Those who want Hillary (uniparty - “fake opposition”/”alternative” side)

This idiot is nothing but a trouble-maker like Ross Perot. He will only take votes away from Donald Trump and increase the Cankled Beast’s chances of winning. I’ve seen him interviewed on TV several times, he’s sickening.

Anyone who votes for him is a sanctimonious idiot and is voting for Hillary. This man has NO CHANCE, he’s on the ballot in only 11 friggin’ states!!

McMullen exists solely to spoil it for Donald.

He knows this.

He is a Clinton supporter. That tells you the lengths they’ll go to to get Clinton elected. They have no ethical floor whatsoever.

Glenn Beck perpetuated the greatest moral fraud in America in decades.

He doesn’t need to win Utah, just take enough Trump votes so that Hillary wins. That’s the plan.

Anybody voting for him wasn’t going to vote for Trump anyway. Better he get those votes than Clinton.

Mormons ain’t republicans. They belong to a murderous cult and seek power in whatever manner necessary

I saw him interviewed, too. It is ALL and ONLY ABOUT HIM. This guy is a bigger narcissist than Obama and Clinton put together.
