In an op-ed, Republican Chris Sununu, governor of the first-in-the-nation primary state, urges second-tier candidates to drop out and consolidate behind an alternative.
Then, Sununu advises, there should be a second and third culling of the field.
Sununu has made the case before, to voters and journalists, that Trump would be defeated if he is faced with a one-on-one race, rather than a crowd of opponents who split votes. "I think if the candidates have the discipline to narrow it down to one on one — but that’s up to these 12," Sununu said."To find who it is. And if they all say 'Look, Will is winning this thing, we are all getting behind Will' and it’s Will and Trump, Will wins in a landslide or almost any of them and Trump."The next day, speaking to reporters, Sununu said again that it's incumbent on anti-Trump Republicans to pick a horse sooner than later.
But Sununu's tune has changed a little since last November, when he told NBC News that he didn't believe Trump would be the nominee. Back then, he said he was worried that Trump's presence could deny the eventual nominee a convincing victory in the battle for convention delegates.
