Trump is Stalling because he is playing with his prey! Sometimes when  a superior fighter know he has his enemy finished, he plays with him makes him think he has him only to counter attack him. This mentally breaks his opponents and makes for an impressive finish.  Trump is doing that right now, his movement gives the false impression they have a chance and as the deep state executed their attack Trump prefectly counters it. They are fighting his fight and only realize this after he inflicts damage. However, they have not figured this out yet...which means they are walking into a savage knockout punch.
