Trump survived up until now in the round, playing rope a dope and taking a lot of hits, mostly on his gloves and forearms, while bobbing and weaving.
Now there’s 30 seconds left in the round, Trump pushes out of the corner, the opponent exhausted himself from throwing too many punches that didn’t land, and Trump goes for the knockout.
That’s a good analogy, I like it. :^)
Floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee.
Ali’s 1974 Rope-a-Dope against Foreman! Perfect DP! And Trump plays the fake news dirtballs like Ali played Howard Cosell. One of their long ago interview bits that will live on: After one back and forth exchange......Cosell to Ali: “You’re being extremely truculent!” Ali: “Whatever truculent mean, if it mean good, I’m that!” Fast hands, fast legs and a quick mouth!
well said from an old boxer ... well understood by an old black belt ...
