I think mormons voted against Trump for all the reasons one ought logically to expect evangelicals to, i.e. he's an immoral, swearing, lying, pretend christian with three or four ( I lose count wives). I think the difference is economic (unlike the Bible Belt and the rust belt, Utah is doing fine in the new information and high tech age,). And while the South and Southwest may feel threatened by Hispanics, Utah does not. Nor do its citizens worry about their jobs being shipped overseas.
I see Trump as the revolt of the blue collar worker (it's a lost battle, and it's lost to economics not politics) and the racist who makes a conection, however illogical between lost jobs and immigrants. Add a few authoritarians, a few celebrity worshipers, and the credulous who think a man who can make a few billion out of many millions in real estate can do anything, and you have the Trump voter..

If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
