What a perfect metaphor for what is going on in America right now.
Crashing in a defeat of humiliation after having so much pride.

Honest question.
In your analogy, who/what is the humiliation America is experiencing?

They're saying it wasn't her knee that was the problem (although I've read that in Europe that's what they're blaming) but I thought something like this was inevitable. It would have been one of the Olympics legendary stories, like Kerri Strug, but we got the agony of defeat instead.
