Throwing In The Towel

Previous efforts from Trump's handlers to rein him in and try to prevent his most rabid and crazy moments from affecting his public image are now history. Nobody around him seems to care any longer, as most of them are busy blaming each other, and trying but failing to abandon the sinking ship.
If this had been a boxing match, now would be the time to throw in the towel as an act of mercy. Instead, we get to watch a delusional, senile lunatic illegally occupying the Oval Office take random swings at thin air while his opponent carefully moves into position for the knockout punch. It's going to be ugly and humiliating, and it's probably going to take a while longer, but the game is over. Whatever remains is just for show.
