Bear with me on this. I think there is more to the 11/27 meme posting than meets the eye. Consider this, Rocky Balboa comes from the streets of Philadelphia as a multi-failed boxer. He is given a chance at a title shot and decides for once in his life he will do something worth while and pushes hard to try to take the title shot. Failing that he goes the full 15 rounds. Next in the series he takes the title. This theme of almost a win and then a win continues through a series of movies till Rocky IV. In the fourth installment it is a exhibition match where first Creed ends up dying at the hands of the super Russian and Rocky challenges and wins. Shortly there after in real history we see the fall of the Soviet Union. That is whole other story.
Now Take Trump, not so much the bum like Rocky as he comes from money but trying to make his way. Has some failures along the way, meets with some disappointments but kind of wins a little here and there in business and in show business as well but does not reach the pinnacle of his full potential. Enter the 2016 election cycle and the request from certain high ranking military who go to Trump and ask him to run. Here is the beginning of his Rocky moment. Through out the entire run up, Trump is trashed, seen as a political bum but in the end he walks away as the new President. Then comes three years of attacks including actual attempts on his life. Russian collusion is the mainstay beginning(think Rocky IV). While not battling the a real super Russian just a hoax collusion, Trumps takes the hits and keeps getting up but that fight while it has a different look now is not over. It will go the full 15 rounds right up to November 2020 election day.
Now consider a number of internet pictures taken of Trump at various rally's where he is in a semi boxer stance, fist raised. He is signaling that he will not back down and will continue to fight. Many don't see that subtle imagery and don't get what he is saying both supporters and haters miss it. So what can he do to get the message across that is more obvious without making it an out right statement? Of course put his face on the victorious body of Rocky Balboa wearing the heavy weight champion belt. Not only is he signaling his willingness to stay in the fight and go the distance but, also that at the end of the 15th round he will again emerge victorious just as Rocky Balboa did time and time again.
The analogy is there and fairly clear if you go back and look at the theme of the Rocky series through #IV. Trump is here to stay, the underdog who like in IV wins over the hearts of the supposed enemy people, just as Trump is doing as seen in the Walk-Away movement and the growing support from black, Hispanics, and various other Democrats across many categories. For them as well as himself he is fighting for honor, dignity, and justice as only an underdog can.
This is not anything that can be pinned down as a sure bet but, the symbolism presented seems to point in that direction. Unlike the DS/Satanic symbolism this is more of a communication through symbolism of the hard road that is yet to come. It is both an assurance and a warning that to go the full 15 rounds takes a superhuman endurance. And like Rocky Trump has the heart for such a long hard road and is going to what it takes to see it to the end. Now all we can do is sit back and wait till next November if this hidden promise is also kept.
