WASHINGTON, D.C., Nov. 27, 2019 (Gephardt Daily) — The Twitter account @realDonaldTrump, famously run by Pres. Donald J. Trump, has tweeted an image of “himself” in boxing gloves.

Upon closer inspection, most of the image with Trump’s head atop an image of actor Sylvester Stallone dressed as Rocky Balboa, from the “Rocky” film franchise.

The tweet, issued without comment, is possibly a reference to Trump’s battle in the current impeachment hearings.

Issued at 8:54 a.m., by 3:50 p.m. local time, the tweet had garnered nearly nearly 390,000 “heart” reactions, more than 120,000 retweets, and nearly 100,000 comments.

An early reaction came from British broadcaster Piers Morgan, who simply tweeted two emojis laughing with tears coming from their eyes.
