Trump has been under a lot of heat

This timely malaphor was uttered by Joy Reid on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show.  She was talking about Trump’s remarks about police not being so careful when loading suspects into the Paddy Wagon.  It is a congruent conflation of “under a lot of stress” and “feeling the heat”, both meaning feeling pressure.  A big thanks to the comedian Frank King for hearing this one!
