GOP Nominating ‘Traditional’ Candidates So Far

Josh Kraushaar: “From the Republican stronghold of Texas to Democratic-leaning Virginia to blue New Mexico, Republicans have been rallying behind traditional candidates in the first wave of nominating fights taking place in 2021.”

“All the successful candidates have been supportive of Trump (he’s endorsed two of them) but have avoided the extreme rhetoric and conspiracy theorizing that defined his presidency.”

“If Trump doesn’t sabotage the interests of his own party, Georgia-style, it’s easy to see the stirrings of a Republican rebound, as voters choose electable standard-bearers in unlikely places.”
