Rand Paul endorses GOP Utah Senate candidate to replace Romney, says he's the 'type of Republican' needed

A Utah Senate candidate who vowed to "push back against the establishment" if he's elected has earned the support of Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who said he is the "type of Republican" needed in the upper chamber to replace retiring GOP Sen. Mitt Romney.

Paul endorsed Riverton Mayor Trent Staggs on Thursday, backing a man who gained notoriety in 2020 for his opposition to mask mandates amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"In 2024, Utah will elect a Republican no matter what. It's about what type of Republican," Paul said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital.

Rand mentioned other constitution supporting Republicans that are in the senate but not Cruz. You would think they'd be natural allies.

I think Rand was referring to other politicians from UT.  As far as I know Rand and Cruz get a long just fine.  They don't always agree but I believe for the most part both are pretty much on the same page.
