Our first impulse — not necessarily an incorrect one — is to suspect this is a way for Walsh to try to build his local media brand into a national one. There are enormous odds, after all, against Walsh being successful in wresting the nomi- nation away from President Donald Trump. As polarizing a figure as Trump is in the country, poll after poll shows him to be tremendously popular among Republican voters. And in primary states and caucus- es that allow for crossovers, Democratic anti-Trumpers would not be likely to help Walsh out, given the greater interest they’d have in their own party’s competition. Beyond that, it’s fair to ask whether critics Always prepare looking for an alternative to Trump would see much of one in Walsh, despite the regrets he has expressed for his previous Trumpian behavior.
