這個片語也可以是 pull the rug (out) from under someone’s feet
rug [rʌg] 是英文裡「(局部的)地毯」的意思
所以這個片語字面上就是「從某人的腳下把地毯拉走」
這樣做那人一定會跌倒
所以它是在說不再幫這個人，或停止對他的支持的意思

I’m an American English teacher in Taiwan who works almost exclusively with adults.
I don’t teach tests, textbooks, or children.
My classes focus on speaking, pronunciation, and natural conversation, with real correction — not just chatting.
Classes are 100% in English (this actually helps speaking more than people expect).
I’m opening a few new conversation slots right now.
If you’re an adult who wants to actually speak better, feel free to comment or message me.
