John Curtis responds to criticism for not blindly going along with Donald Trump
Sen.-elect John Curtis , 64, on Sunday foreshadowed that he isn’t afraid to be a maverick when it comes to weighing Trump’s cabinet picks or mulling spending packages that the president-elect may seek to push through.
Curtis had indicated that he is still harboring some apprehension over several of Trump’s other picks, too, including Department of Defense Secretary-designee Pete Hegseth. The Beehive State pol insists that he is a “normal” Republican rather than a MAGA one. During the 2024 primary process, Curtis prevailed over Trump-backed Trent Staggs in locking down the GOP nod for Senate.
