Like a lamb to the buzzsaw

The contributor was watching the Trump/Biden debate and his brother-in-law was commenting on Biden’s poor performance, uttering this mashup of “like a lamb/lambs to the slaughter” (to do something without concern of the dangers ahead) and “walking/running into a buzz saw” (encounter a dangerous situation). Good description. A shout out to loyal Malaphor follower and major contributor Verbatim for hearing this one and sending it in.

As the political season heats up, so do the malaphors. Check out my book Things Are Not Rosy-Dory: Malaphors from Politicians and Pundits, a collection of past malaphors uttered by both parties and by all those talking political heads out there! It’s on Amazon for a cheap $8.99! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08C7GGMG5?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860
