When A Win Is Not A Win

 

By Sniffles

Just as the Iowa caucuses revealed a nettling weakness in Benedict Donald — even among Republicans — New Hampshire appears to have delivered a similar result.

Trump said Nikki Haley would suffer a "big loss" today, especially since recent polling averages put him around 18 points ahead. But right now, with the race called, he's only leading by six.

Obviously, this margin could change. But a number of New Hampshire Republicans were telling reporters today that they voted for Haley because they didn't want to live under a dictatorship. Some said that if Trump were the GOP nominee, they'd vote for President Biden.

"Trump and his team will, of course, celebrate the win, but it's far from the massive victory Trump was predicting Monday night," The Daily Beast reported, calling the primary a "split decision." Meanwhile, Joe Biden beat the ridiculous Dean Phillips in the state by 50 points... as a write-in candidate. We cats PURR.
