“There is Donald Trump, and then there is everyone else,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“That has been the story of the race for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination so far, and it will be again Wednesday night on the debate stage in Milwaukee, where eight Republican hopefuls will try to emerge from the former president’s shadow at an event he doesn’t feel the need to attend.”
“Their challenge: trying to grab some of the spotlight from Trump and show their viability before a prime-time audience. Millions of devoted Republicans as well as some independent and Democratic voters will be watching as the GOP wrestles with whether the party should continue to follow Trump’s lead or find a new standard-bearer.”
