... <Sigh> ... Lemme explain, mate.
"Forced out" surely mean that they didn't want her
on that job anymore... "Pushed away" would also
mean almost the same thing.
"Cut loose like a deuce" - would be a low-card that
you might discard while playin' a card game.
Not unlike bein' forced out and pushed away.
Understand now?
Oh, and on a side-note there - lemme mention that
a so-called opposite might be a "deuced clever fellow"
- which would be a "card sharp" bloke, who can
surely use the lower cards to his advantage.
