B-Team

The B-Team is a name given to players or candidates who, although they may look competitive in practice, are likely to disappoint their side in the real competition, such as a game or election.

In 2019, the "B-Team" of Democrat candidates for president ironically all have names that start with "B", perhaps illustrating that God does have a sense of humor. They comprise more than a third of the candidates, and include:

* Bernie Sanders
* Beto O'Rourke
* Joe Biden
* Pete Buttigieg, the only son of a Marxist immigrant professor
* Bill de Blasio, a red diaper baby
* Cory Booker
* Michael Bennet
* Steve Bullock
