The boxing analogy-trump

He likes to compare himself to a boxer, a counter puncher.

Two things a counter puncher relies on, speed and a solid chin. Speed is something that goes as a boxer gets older. Can trump take one on the button, not at all.

So, how does it all end? Buster Douglas was a 42 to 1 underdog when he, pretty much destroyed Mike Tyson's career. It'll be someone unexpected that knocks trump out.

I'm listening to C-Span's morning call-in show, National Journal. The Trump defenders are out there in force. We hate the media. There is going to be another Civil War. You (the media and anyone with a brain) look down on us. You despise us. Etc, etc, etc.
I've yet to hear a single individual calling on the Republican side criticize Trump in any way. Joe and Mika deserved what they got. Next time we'll bring out the 247 guns in our gun closets.
