Mediaite reports:
Republican Rep. Mia Love targeted President Donald Trump in her concession speech on Monday, after losing the Utah congressional race to Democrat Ben McAdams.
Love, whose loss was mocked by Trump earlier this month, said in her concession speech from Salt Lake City, Utah that, “When president Trump took a jab at me… I was surprised at first.”
She said his comments gave her a “clear vision of his world as it is: No real relationships, just convenient transactions.”
“The President’s behavior towards me made me wonder: What did he have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican,” Love said in speech today. “It was not really about asking him to do more, was it? Or was it something else?“ https://t.co/RbvjM6f7sC
