Beg to Differ: ‘Isn’t that special?!’

Another tumultuous week in Utah politics for both Republicans and Democrats.

 

Jason Chaffetz announces he’s stepping down from Congress. Why? What’s next for the congressman? Who is going to run to replace him in the House of Representatives? Who should set the rules for the special election to fill his seat? 

What does the selection of Robert Mueller, former FBI director, as a special counsel investigating Russia mean? Will Donald Trump ever get a handle on this president thing? Also, is he smart enough to turn his presidency around? 

Plus, we discuss the urgent need for tax reform on Utah’s Capitol Hill and play the “simultaneous game.” 

Bryan Schott and Rep. Mike Winder try to make sense of what’s going on in the political universe.
