I have a question for my fellow Utahns.
While watching the Democratic National Convention, I was struck by how empathetic and kind Joe Biden is. He is obviously a very loyal family man, with a strong sense of decency, a stark contrast to Donald Trump.
I honestly don’t mean this as a political issue, but a moral one. I am curious why so many in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints support Trump over Biden, a man with the strong ethical and family values the church purports to teach.
What a confusing message this must send to young members of the church.
