Just-defeated GOP Rep. Mia Love — who was mocked by President Trump after Election Day for supposedly not showing him sufficient loyalty — fired back at the commander-in-chief Monday.
“The president’s behavior towards me made me wonder: What did he have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican,†the Utah lawmaker said in Salt Lake City.
“It was not really about asking him to do more, was it? Or was it something else? Well Mr. President, we’ll have to chat about that,†she continued during her concession speech after a tight race with Democratic Rep.-elect Ben McAdams.
“However, this gave me a clear vision of his world as it is. No real relationships, just convenient transactions. That is an insufficient way to implement sincere service and policy,†she said.
Love, who is African-American, then addressed the problem DC Republicans have attracting minority voters.
