Liberals Being Rope a Doped by President Trump

Donald Trump may have learned a few things from his friend Muhammad Ali.   

      If you want to understand the American political scene, I give you Muhammad Ali and the Rope a Dope. I'm serious, President Donald Trump is roping Liberals like dopes.  Trump is like  Ali, infuriating his opponents with his antics and trash talk.  They  lash out with a flurry of punches and think that they are scoring big.   The crowd goes wild, and the announcers excitedly predict a knockout is coming.   But Ali steps aside, dodges and deflects the power punches until his opponent is worn out.  By the eighth round, his opponent is fatigued, and suddenly Ali nails him with a right hand and he is knocked out.   
       This is exactly what President Trump is doing to his Liberal friends. He says something stupid or factually incorrect, and the Liberals go ballistic.  They denounce him, deplore him, call him stupid and ignorant, and charge forward trying to knock him out with wild punches, but none of this really hurts him.  For example, do you think Congress is going to impeach the President for questioning the election process?   Go ahead and deplore his reasoning, but  it probably helps him with the average Joe who isn't that intellectually deep into the integrity of voting machines anyway.  Then he'll amend his position later on and his opponents will look foolish.  "Well that's not what he said originally," they will cry.  Big deal.   
        You have been roped, you dopes.  
        The President has the power to make his opponents go into conniptions over increasingly minor issues.  This diverts attention from the major issues like the future of Obamacare. 
      It's a great technique, and  the President's opponents just can't resist falling for it time after time after time.  They over-react and over-react every time, and eventually they start knocking themselves out.
