If you don’t agree with the party’s platform, you’re not a Republican

“A good leader stands in front of their men in times of criticism, and behind them in times of praise.”

I do not know where this quote originated, but I heard it first from my husband, a supervisor at his job, who has always given his crew the credit when management praises them for a job well done, and takes the responsibility when things don’t go so great. This idea hit me in my gut and has always stuck with me.

I took this to heart while I was the Uinta County Republican Party Chair. I took the criticisms on myself and gave all the credit to the great people in the central committee for the wonderful things we were able to accomplish during my term.
