As President Trump pursues his right-wing agenda at breakneck speed, with Democrats in retreat and “Never Trump” conservatives making themselves scarce, Utah's center-right Republicans are trying to reassert themselves.

Loss of collective bargaining for teachers and firefighters, removal of DEI programming, tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of education, micromanaging higher ed instructional program budgets, trans student dorm bill, and so many others. Did you talk to anyone from this state?
Democrats are not going to do anything because they are all centrists and do it oppose all fascist ideas. For example the new DNC chair is very to Israel, pro genocide. Why don’t you guys ask all the centrists how they defeated the Natzis, oh wait those were communists.
@nytimes.com is documenting the transformation of the USA into a dictatorship. Documenting! Not fighting! Documenting! It at least enables future generations to ask, why they were just documenting…
Utah Republicans pretending they're different while still backing the same extremist policies. "Distaste for MAGA" means nothing if they vote the same way.
Democrats in retreat? Where are you, NYT? Please report some real news based on real things happening in our country. You’re wasting my time and our democracy.
They aren’t center right. They are conservative. MAGA is fascist. WTF @nytimes.com ?! Just because MAGA has embraced fascism that does not make conservatives “center right”. FFS.
Oh, this is complete bullshit. Utah Republicans are fully behind Trump. Maybe in some fever dream there's some Mormons that *might* question something, but they all fall directly in line.
The Democrats need new strategies & start outflanking Republicans who are weaker than they seem. Start educating voters how MAGA Putin cronies undermining US security until one day in the future Russia will attack USA. Russia & China actively engaging in cyber warfare shaping the battlefield.
This is a great fairytale to sell to a nation hungry for a "good Republican", but judging from the confirmation votes of Utah's 2 senators, it's horseshit.

Mike Lee managed to get Trump's balls out of his mouth yesterday to cheer for the U.S. to leave NATO.
Utah is just as dangerous and stupid as every other red state in the nation.
