Just-defeated GOP Rep. Mia Love — who was mocked by President Trump after Election Day for supposedly not showing him sufficient loyalty — fired back at the commander-in-chief Monday.
“The president’s behavior towards me made me wonder: What did he have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican,” the Utah lawmaker said in Salt Lake City.
“It was not really about asking him to do more, was it? Or was it something else? Well Mr. President, we’ll have to chat about that,” she continued during her concession speech after a tight race with Democratic Rep.-elect Ben McAdams.
“However, this gave me a clear vision of his world as it is. No real relationships, just convenient transactions. That is an insufficient way to implement sincere service and policy,” she said.
Love, who is African-American, then addressed the problem DC Republicans have attracting minority voters.
“This election experience and these comments shines a spotlight on the problems Washington politicians have with minorities and black Americans — it’s transactional, it’s not personal,” she said, CNN reported.
“You see, we feel like politicians claim they know what’s best for us from a safe distance, yet they’re never willing to take us home. Because Republicans never take minority communities into their home and citizens into their homes and into their hearts, they stay with Democrats and bureaucrats in Washington because they do take them home — or at least make them feel like they have a home.”

As if she didn’t say anything about Pres. Trump.
What a truly STUPID, disgusting, braindead B**ch!
GO TO THE NYPOST to see all of her complaining. It’s humorous and clueless. She was not a team player!
As Jagger/Richards wrote years ago — “You sure are pretty but I can’t say the same for your mind”

See how easily we are fooled.
She’s not really an American if she’s hyphenated. Just saying.
Was she every really a Republican?
She deserves everything she got. She showed her real hand, and lost the game. Now she wants to blame everyone else but herself for her own failures.
How about acknowledgment of what rank and file Republicans actually want out of their elected officials?
Out! Out! Out!
Yeah I know nitpicking but author didn’t do his homework, Mia Love is Haitian American.
GOP increased minority voting substantially last month
Yet Mia still lost
At the time this made me wonder, “What did She have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican”
I guess she has time to consider that question now.
A perfect example of why I sneer in derision every time the “TEA PARTY” is mentioned. They did more to set the conservative/populist movement back than anyone.
Mia Love joins Jeff Flake, Trey Gowdy, Ben Sasse, and all the “all hat no cattle” big talkers who accomplished nothing but wasting our time.
Obviously women have better bs detectors than men do when it comes to female phonies like Mia. Not to mention backstabber.
I despise backstabbing Republicans more than most Democrats.
go back to Haiti , Mia
I always thought she was a class act. Guess I was wrong. Sad.
That’s why the RINO idiot lost!! She was a huge disappointment in Utah.
Wasn’t ML always a PRyno #NeverTrumper?
What a truly STUPID, disgusting, braindead B**ch!
She just read whatever he beltway consultants fed into her teleprompter. Maybe auditioning for a CNN gig. Who knows. Her church will be pushing her to keep in the public eye.
