Not buying rope a dope as a strategy. But I do hope we are ready get off the ropes and fight. We're not fighting for a title belt. We're not fighting for a party. We're fighting for America.

Time to punch him in the face.

I do believe that the greed, overreach and overconfidence of this administration will cause a huge backlash resulting in their electoral defeats in 26 and 28.

But only if we work for it.

Rev. is metaphorically referring to all the civil lawsuits being filed by Attorneys General and Civil Rights advocates. They will be raining down on him for his ilegal actions until they reach the SCOTUS. Then. “we’ll see what happens.”?

Thanks for sharing an incredibly vague and inconclusive article.

I admit the post was edited for space, but I thought most people knew about Mohamed Ali, would understand the metaphor, and at least draw a smile like this one did for me. You’re right, It’s not conclusive bc we’re just getting started.
