Last week, a Wall Street Journal poll reported that former President Donald Trump had opened a wide lead over Florida Gov. That was one of several polls suggesting that Trump is firmly on top of the GOP race right now. Chris Christie stumped last week in New Hampshire, telling GOP voters he’s the kind of candidate they need. In an Associated Press-NORC survey this month, 37% of Republican voters said they had a “very favorable” opinion of Trump — a drop from 47% in July 2021. No matter what you think of their policies, give them credit for at least one thing: They’re offering GOP voters an alternative to four more years of the Trump Show.
