U.S. Senate Republican Primary Debate with John Curtis, Trent Staggs, Jason Walton and Brad Wilson

[@themanflake]

I used to work for Jason Walton's company, I've had a training with him and I know him to be a great man. All of them seem like great men.

[@bullfrogger8989]

John Curtis touting his time as a UT mayor, UT legislator, and US Rep, screams career politician. Bit as much of a selling point as he thinks.

[@leifjessop3612]

I love Jason Walton! Thank you for supporting the people and what we want and need. Also, loved working under you in Summer Sales years back. You were an inspiration for good then and continue to inspire and strengthen.

[@themanflake]

Great man

[@infinityphotorob]

Curtis says he stands for Public Land but in Utah we are about to lose access to over 3000 miles of roads and trails in southern Utah. He is not standing up to the attack on public land by BLM and the NFS. He also does not endorse Trump. So he is literally a carbon copy of Mitt. Staggs is the only guy that answered questions directly. Jason Walton was really good. I think either guy would serve us well in the Senate. But I really like how direct Staggs is about his answers and that he will support President Trump. I will vote Staggs in the primary and if Walton wins give him my full support. Brad Wilson feels like another regular Republican guy. No changes and no path forward in our country.

[@suitcase6698]

I’d also like to add that Trent Staggs entered the race when it was unknown whether Mittens would run or not

[@zionmama150]

Staggs is just in this for the drama. We need someone smart and ethical.

[@typatterson3736]

How the heck did they get Will Ferrell from zoolander to moderate this debate ??

[@JennyG.COW5]

I didn't know much about Jason Walton, but based on what I'm learning from his answers and viewpoint, the more I like him! I also like Staggs perspective too.

[@cindyrawlings1433]

Im leaning Staggs but Walton is very good! That's a hard pick no to Curtis and btw no to Governor Cox!!!! He's kissing up to biden and has allowed illegals into our state no more!!!

[@permagenix]

Trent Staggs is the only candidate who can prevent a repeat of Mitt Romney 2.0 aka John Curtis🦏 NO MORE RINOS!

[@zionmama150]

Staggs is in it for the drama

[@permagenix]

Staggs is in it to win it, and start fixing what's broke in DC. He's not afraid to speak the truth even when it hurts. If you want to call that drama, I'm ok with that.

[@lukitasm]

If the softball questions from PBS to John Curtis doesn’t show you who the establishment is backing idk what does

[@SHADOWKamen]

Now notice that there were four candidates on stage for the Republican U.S. Senate primary debate. Keep that in mind when the general election comes along and the Debate Commission starts saying that having more than two candidates on stage is too much for them to handle.

[@adamhenrywalker]

Don’t be gay

[@sarahbailey522]

Curtis made his money off insider knowledge and pac donations. He needs to term limit himself. Trent stood up for truth and honesty!

[@brentmason5262]

Staggs crushed it at convention. The rest of these guys bypassed the convention by PAYING FOR SIGNATURES. I like Walton, but please don’t split the vote. The people have spoken and we want Staggs.

[@rconger24]

Curtis has been in Washington long enough.

[@ratchetman]

Trent Staggs is the obvious choice to represent Utah.

[@regansutalo791]

John Curtis is amazing at lying directly into the camera!

[@jessicastaples5833]

Is there a transcript of this somewhere?

[@deet4396]

Do Not 👈 vote for Curtis!! The End!

[@knowlove9630]

First and Only Choice Trent STAGGS!!

[@matthewkundis5642]

Trent Staggs 100%, best by far. Also, I'll never forgive Curtis or Walton for how they acted during Covid.

[@rockymtn1291]

What did they do during Covid?

[@sarahbailey522]

Walton too?

[@leifjessop3612]

Walton didn't do anything bad during covid that I can think of. He stood for me and others working around the country as sales reps and Pest control workers. He didn't let the government shut us down

[@danielaf12]

I think you mean Wilson* Walton has never been in politics and that why we want him!

[@typatterson3736]

Curtis still won't endorse trump ...

[@danblack5402]

STAGGS all the way.

[@BigJthumpalump]

Wilson and Staggs seem like regular people who want to give power back to the people. Something is off with Walton. I really like Staggs.

[@codywiseman7378]

Who is the Brian asking questions in the scrum?

[@Infernalhazard]

My guess is its SL Tribune. I get a sense of old and angry in his voice.

[@adamhenrywalker]

Trent Staggs FTW!

[@FromtheFoyer]

Trent Staggs is my choice for US Senate

[@jordanr2036]

John Curtis is mine. Enjoy, he’ll be your next Senator.

[@sk8erguyjake]

It’s amazing that the media has way more questions for how staggers questioned the stock purchase by Curtis, than they are the actual stock purchase by Curtis himself

[@Blake01025]

We have to elect TRENT STAGGS!

[@Freedom.1776]

VOTE TRENT STAGGS!!

[@aderynthomson5991]

Staggs has my vote.

[@john_smithchiropractor3931]

Let's go Staggs!

[@OnewheelAsh]

Lets go Jason Walton!

[@bradenlee1114]

No more career politicians! They are the problem. Walton for senate!

[@REXTERRA33]

JASON WALTON is the man for the SENATE!

[@jonahorr4849]

John Curtis has my vote. That was a low blow by Staggs at the end of the debate and wasn’t even true.

[@maegan5034]

Cheap shot by Staggs at the end of the debate! Kudos to the moderator, Glen Mills, for allowing John Curtis to respond. I agree with Curtis that if those are the types of tactics Staggs would be using in Congress, he wouldn't be representative of the citizens of Utah. Staggs definitely lost a lot of votes with that tactic. Since the debate, news articles have appeared to indicate Staggs was inaccurate in accusing Curtis of a felony. How could we trust such a person in Congress who can't do accurate research nor speak with veracity? Sounds as though he's learned tactics from the Dems.

[@StephenPriest-op9fo]

Brad Wilson, is not someone who will protect 2A rights despite him saying otherwise during this debate. During his time as in the House he voted yes on HB0300, sponsored by Sen. Mike Kennedy which gave Utah voluntary red flags. Utah we have big choices to make this fall. Don't make the mistake of voting these two into the Senate and House respectfully or you can expect your 2A rights to be voted away.

[@suitcase6698]

I’m going for Trent Staggs for senate! He’s endorsed by Trump, Rand Paul and many other based people! And for Utah’s’ third district, it’s gonna have to be Case Lawrence

[@monsterjamin24-79]

Staggs for Utah!

[@scottripplinger3990]

"Drain the swamp... bla, bla, bla... Career politicians... bla, bla, bla..." Yeah, I have my issues with Curtis, but I don't want to "drain the swamp" just to replace it with toxic sludge. He was the only one that seems to have any clue how to do the actual job, and not just posture.

[@KH-fi9cm]

You are either a friend of John Curtis or clueless, or a Democrat

[@scottripplinger3990]

No.

[@zionmama150]

I don’t like Curtis. But he’s the only one. I don’t like his liberal ideas, but he is mostly conservative and he does know how to create legislation that comes to agreement points both sides agree on without compromise. He’s getting stuff done in Washington. I wasn’t going to vote for him until listening to this debate. But this has changed my mind. Staggs is in it for the drama. Same with Walton. And I don’t trust Brad Wilson.

[@Bloodylaser]

Brad Wilson is the Romney supported candidate.

[@suitcase6698]

He also got endorsed by Cox so it’s a no for me

[@karsenjackson864]

No discussion here, Walton or bust.

[@blake5226]

I feel like John Curtis best represents me, he has my vote!

[@chanceofrain9535]

Wow what a mess! Utah is going down the tubes

[@Freedom.1776]

They're starting to turn things around, especially if Trent Staggs wins.

[@suitcase6698]

@@Freedom.1776at least we kept Mike Lee

[@lukitasm]

I hope Utah is smart enough to elect Jason Walton
