Letter: Republicans are jealous of Ben McAdams

(Alex Goodlett | Ap photo) In this Nov. 6, 2018, file photo Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams, Democratic candidate for Utah's 4th Congressional District, speaks to supporters during an election night party, in Salt Lake City. Republican U.S. Rep. Mia Love has cut into McAdams' lead as vote-counting continues in the race that remains too close to call a week after Election Day.

Regarding the article “GOP candidates agree: McAdams needs to go and Trump is great,” (April 24), the real reason is simple. They’re jealous.

Not being a Republican politician, kissing Trump’s butt on a daily basis is not part of Rep. Ben McAdams’ job description.
