Mormons and Trump: A Shifting Political Landscape in Utah

Tara is joined by McKay Coppins from The Atlantic to discuss his recent reporting on Donald Trump’s peculiar relationship with evangelical voters. They talk about the prayer rituals before Trump’s rallies, analyze the contradictions of being on the religious right and supporting a less-than-righteous candidate, and shine a light on where Mormons stand on the wedge issues driving this year’s election.
