Piers Morgan: Trump should take a knee in Oval Office on live TV to unify country

British TV morning host Piers Morgan called on President Trump to take a knee on live TV from the Oval Office, arguing Monday that such a grand gesture might ensure reelection.

Morgan, a former CNN prime-time host and one-time supporter of the president, made the remark in an opinion piece for the Daily Mail as protests over the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd on May 25 enter their third week.

"From the start of the protests, the President has done nothing but pour 'when the looting starts, the shooting starts' fuel onto the flames, acting as a divisive lightening rod with his incendiary rhetoric," Morgan wrote. "Yet the more he rages, and the more he vows to 'dominate' the protestors, the more tone-deaf and out-of-touch he looks - as his crashing approval ratings indicate."

3. And the people in Hell want ice water. His Lardship would never do anything

conciliatory or humble. That's WEAK!!!

[bbernardini]

4. That would mean admitting he was wrong. He'll never do it. nt

9. That column should come with its own laugh-track...

Not only would 45 never do anything like that, but, if he did, he would instantly lose his entire base, who would explode in fury at "the President of the United States kneeling to n***** thugs!" Those left-of-center, obviously, would see it as a meaningless stunt. If he won over anyone, it would be a small number of "moderate Republicans," which wouldn't be enough to offset his losses among the racist mob he stirred up and that carried him to the White House.

10. If He Took A Knee In The Oval Office - It Would Be Because He Was.....
