"Stoop to conquer" = hạ mình để chinh phục -> nghĩa là đảm nhận vai trò, vị trí được cho là thấp kém hơn khả năng hoặc địa vị xã hội của mình để đạt được mục đích cuối cùng; 'khổ nhục kế'.

Ví dụ
There are many who believe that the party is the biggest obstacle (chướng ngại vật) in the path of Opposition unity today by still insisting that all other parties must accept the leadership of the Congress parivar. So, is Congress ready to stoop to conquer?

This means it must reach out more to the opposition (bên đối lập) to evolve a consensus (nhất trí) on difficult reforms (cải cách). It cannot get things done on its own. When your political capital is eroding, you have to stoop to conquer.

There some hazards (mối nguy) of twitter for which I have to stoop to conquer. Most of these are paid to tweet. My challenge to publish the full text has no answer and they stand exposed.
