Trump has been under a lot of heat

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!
