Let’s say, just for the Hell of it, that Nikki Haley wins the New Hampshire primary. It could happen, you know. She’s got momentum on her side and everyone but the real MAGA assholes are beginning to get sick of Donald Trump.

And by the way, Haley happens to have slightly better poll numbers vis-à-vis Joe than the numbers put up by Trump. So, whose to say that she won’t beat him in New Hampshire, at which point all the talk about Trump getting back into the White House will go on hold?

Which brings me to the real question I need to ask: If Haley begins to come out ahead of Trump in the GOP primaries, will Trump launch another ‘stop the steal’ campaign, except this time accusing the GOP of corrupting the electoral race?

Think I’m joking? Not in the slightest. No way José. After all, what’s Trump going to say to explain why he’s losing out to birdbrain? That he has a better plan to curb the ‘ruinous’ inflation which has disappeared?

I paid $2.94 for gasoline today without using one of those stupid discount cards. Granted, I live in a state (Massachusetts) which keeps the state gasoline tax so low that we don’t have a single goddamn highway which isn’t filled with potholes.

But I was paying $3.59 a gallon just a couple of months ago and the roads in this state were as shitty then as they…
