We all know that the Mormon church is MASSIVELY conservative.

But I also remember hearing back in 2017 that not many Mormons from Utah voted for Trump.

And now, after Trump showed for four years that he's incredibly devoted to preserving the American way of life, Mitt Romney, by far the most publicly visible member of the church and who I believe has had family members who are prominent in the church, has voted to impeach Trump.

This makes no sense to me.

I want to know if the church is taking this route as a whole. Is the church gonna be Trump mormons or Romney mormons?

If you're mormon please be spreading the word of Trump's greatness to your mormon friends and family, we need every mind we can get

They still oppose gays and abortion typically but those are actually very minor issues in the grand scheme of things. They 100% supported all this woke-ism, anti-racism, egalitarianism stuff. They think the democrats are the good guys and that Donald Trump is a bad man etc... They're easily swept up by the nice sounding words of the democrats and race war. Also, the Mormons I was looking into were discussing how women should be able to become priests because equality for women and it was being taken very seriously as like yeah this is a good idea. Basically the quick first impression I got from the Mormons church I experienced was the people were naive as fuck and had no clue how the people they supported were going to be their very undoing. They supported to social degradation thinking they were being nice and good people because they seemed to be adverse to conflict and overall weak humans. I don't expect Mormons to be around much longer as anything more than a joke from what I saw.

This is really bad news, this whole time here I was thinking the mormons are some of the good guys. I actually really hope you're wrong and that the ones you met were uniquely liberal or something. But that would really explain why Romney voted to impeach Trump.

But I also can't imagine Utah being a state with very few patriots. There's gotta be a big rural population that supports Trump. Maybe the mormon church leadership has also been infiltrated by socialists just like the government

I'm in Canada and these were Canadian Mormons. Still, I think if these Mormons are that way, it's likely an indication of something going on within the Mormon church itself. I'd be weary. I don't think they're as "based" as people think. Romney should most definitely be a clue to people about Mormons. I'd imagine Utah Mormons would be better than Canadian Mormons but I still found these Canadian Mormons more liberal than average Canadians which is very concerning to me. They just seemed overall very naive to the spiritual battle going on and were just too obsessed with trying to be nice and inclusive that they'd be willing to sacrifice almost all their values if it meant avoiding a confrontation and increasing the membership of the church.

Yeah mormons do try to be very inclusive and welcoming in general cause they're always trying to convert people. That situation seems pretty complicated to me cause canada is pretty woke (at least that's what I always assumed) but the mormons in canada are also not american and the mormon church is a religion that was started in the US, so they teach conservative values that are from here which I'm guessing are slightly different to Canadian ones (like, I don't think your conservatives talk about guns as much as we do here). Also, mormons in other countries are often converts and so may not have been raised by mormons
