Which Democrats will take a knee during the Anthem at the next debates ?
« on: July 19, 2019, 01:39:02 AM »
Maximum of ten choices, best out of ten wins.  You can't change your vote(s).   I'll give everyone Inslee as a given.

I'll take "All of them" for $1000, Alex.  Although Biden and Sanders will need help getting up.

Besides inslee I just picked 10 at random.  If one does the rest will too.  Can't be out-done on offensiveness in such a venue.

ALL OF THEM.  It's a contest for who can do the most virtue signaling.

Agree with all of them taking the knee.

As long as they continue to chase the far left SJW votes, as soon as one of them does it, they'll all have to, or the ones that don't are sunk. Possibly Harris would be able to buck the trend and come out ahead with her base, only because of her skin color.

As far as I'm concerned they all already have taken a knee.

Could my governor, Jay Inslee, be so stupid as to do this on national TV?  I will be interested to see. He recently told The Seattle Times that if he becomes President, Megan Rapinoe will be his Secretary of State.

Biden didn't make the list?  I don't see him doing it, nor Klobuchar, and probably not Sanders.  All the rest whose names I recognize I think would.  There are about 10 names there that I've never heard before.

Inslee is in Round 2 on the 31st.   So someone will have to get the jump on him by kneeling on the 30th.

Why is Kamala NOT the obvious choice for taking a knee (or two)?

A wiseass of my acquaintance said he'd like to give them the knee.

Sanders won't, because he knows he couldn't get back up again.
