"Trump's Indictments and GOP Reactions: A Political Divide"

Donald Trump's popularity among Republican voters remains strong, but concerns are growing about his ability to appeal to a broader, more moderate set of voters in a possible general election matchup against President Joe Biden. If Trump fails, he risks not just losing the White House contest but also dragging down other Republican candidates on the ballot as the party aims to retake the U.S. Senate and keep the House. The Republican Party is increasingly active in trying to block Trump's acolytes from being nominated in down ballot races or encouraging hopefuls to change the subject from its losing messages of the past.
