"Trump Allies Dodge Navalny's Death Ahead of South Carolina Primary"
Trump campaign surrogates are avoiding discussing Alexei Navalny's death as they campaign in South Carolina ahead of the state's Republican primary, despite Western leaders blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Joe Biden pledging major sanctions against Russia. Trump himself has compared Navalny's death to his own legal issues, and his supporters in South Carolina have echoed his sentiments, deflecting questions about Navalny's death by focusing on Trump's legal troubles. Meanwhile, rival Nikki Haley has criticized Trump for not condemning Putin and has used the issue to attack him.
