Mia Love gives Trump no love as she concedes a narrow loss in Utah
By John Wagner November 26 at 1:43 PM
Rep. Mia Love (R-Utah) took a parting shot Monday at President Trump — saying he has “no relationships, just convenient transactions” — as she conceded narrow defeat in her reelection bid against Democrat Ben McAdams.
Trump had called out Love by name at a combative White House news conference the day after Election Day, criticizing her and other defeated Republicans and suggesting that they lost because they did not sufficiently “embrace” him.
“Mia Love gave me no love, and she lost,” Trump said. “Too bad. Sorry about that, Mia.”

“The president’s behavior towards me made me wonder: What did he have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican?” Love said.
She said Trump’s comments “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.”
