Stacey Abrams: If Asked To Serve By Biden, I would Be Honored | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Yes Please…..Stacey 1000%
@Lisa Lightner You have the looks of Hillary Clinton – old ugly and fat
@The Honkler you look at that picture and see old fat and ugly?
Wow, when you look with hatred you are blind.
@SteelersPenguinsPirates exactly – shes another beto… 4 months of pressure from limbaugh and hannity and shes dead
@The Honkler Your cute.;;;;how long have you been suffering from Clinton derangement syndrome?
It will be a Waste ! Biden I think forgot about her ! He moved on !
When I first heard Biden say, he would choose a woman to run with,
I was a lil bit pizzed off…
thinking he would pick a ”Palin” or some such
But, if he chooses a woman like this, a real patriot, smart, hard working… I have no problem at all with it
Russian Bot compared to Trump who’s insane is like a goldfish on pot! Forget about it Boty.
Dave Schultz She lives in reality. She knows who she is. Do you?
Abrams is NOT a Patriot, she is part of the disease of progressivism.
He should choose the best person for the job: man, woman, black, white, or First American.
Why? Cause she got cheated by another racist white man.
Nothing brings the Trump TROLLS out faster than a SMART WOMEN of color
@turnne the shthead anklebiter,
Take this test to prove that you are over 40 years old…
https://www.buzzfeed.com/daves4/over-40-quiz
@Joe Kerr
Actually…now I am going with 12 years old and a 5th grade education at BEST
@Joe Kerr says who you GTFOH she’s obviously intelligent but if you believe she is not smart you must think agent orange has the mind of a Neanderthal with a severe learning disability
@turnne the braindead moron,
And I have used TRaSh-80 Model 1, Apple II, first IBM PC, PC-Dos 1.0…. Where were you, kid ? Do you even know what an acoustic coupler is ? That’s how old I was, kid.
@cole eason
Use your freaking brain ! If she is that intelligent she would not be owing $200K at age 44 years old !!!
Thanks Stacy Abrams for a phenomenal job and dedication and work defending the Low Economic Front line Workers and Families.❤️ Biden/Abrams❤️
There is no defense for not getting an education in this day and age….. Only Spanish speaking Illegal drop outs should be allowed to do such menial tasks.
“Paper or plastic”….. “I’ll take a number 3”. This is literally all you need to understand to qualify.
Defending with words is all empty Socialcrats can do.
@Dave Schultz so I take it you won’t be cashing your PPP check?
It’s will be so exiting if Stacey is vise President of American, history in the making , love Stacey
@Raymond Harrison we see what women in charge do, just look at pelosi, a transgender with a witches broom doing nothing to help out. do not worry though she said they will be back in congress on the 4th of may, that is unless there is a crisis. what no ice cream?
@Russian Bot Though I have a very democratic state of mind.
@Wiebe Stuive nothing wrong with that the problem is you let other people think for you
@Raymond Harrison what ever happened to biden anyway, have not see him with his wife now being his mouth piece on even msdnc wow we so miss the humor
@tanon You better pick someone that can tie their own shoes before looking for a VP
Trump opposes mail-in voting, dismissing the concept as “corrupt” despite having voted by mail himself. No hypocrisy there, right Trump followers? Wake up folks, Trump is conning you . Be better than Trump; it is not difficult.
Trump is going to be in office another 4 years, Y’all stay crying lol
@Joey Harper *MUTE!!🆗👿👋👋✌😂😂😂*
@O SNOOPY SNOOP #1 Just stating facts.
@Tucker Ford Exactly. Republicans have always known that if they don’t cheat via voter suppression, owning then purposely rigging the voting machines, and gerrymandering, (all in repub states) they will lose every time. It’s the reason that they are holding up the crucifix against mail in ballots. It is so rare that Dems cheat (I’m only aware of 15 votes in years) its hardly worth mentioning. Republicans on the other hand cheat EVERY election. It’s simple, we don’t have to. My state has had mail in ballots for years, works beautifully, we even get stamped envelopes.
@Linda Scott You know your lying don’t you?
I like a lady that oozes common sense and strength of character!
@ Jason Thompson… What About UV Light Up His Derriere…?/ Or Injecting Some Bleach In His Lungs…?/ Or His Hidroxichloroquine…?/
Abrams oozes racism and hatred. She also doesn’t pay her bills.
@Western V Is your whole family this ignorant?
@@bobberguy1 That Would Be Trump, And For Good Measure… A Lying Machine… Plus A Dreadful And Manifest Incompetence..!
@Chicago Boy sigh…. She did not win, nor was it super close. She lost the election by over 50k votes.
❤️ Shes amazing!!!! super intelligent and ready for any challenge. I would definitely love to see her be a part of Biden’s team. She has the people’s best interest at heart.
@Minnie Minosa rather have a lawyer who at the very least had to study the Constitution than a 2 bit conman clown like Trump.
@Natasha Norman sorry, your attempt to convince us you care about human life is nullified by your party’s support of killing old people because of the economy.
The Rethuglican party is now officially the party of death panels. Deal with it.
If She was intelligent she wouldn’t run with Biden ! Knowing Fool well he won’t win !
@Linda Scott You lefts stay crying about Trump, But fail to realise you have 4 more years to do so😁
She is a moron !
Stop touting a moron as super intelligent.
What an intelligent leader…a rarity these days. Wish her all the best.
Linda Scott Have you tried increasing your estrogen supplements? I think that would be beneficial and we don’t even know you. Give it a try.
Bob Miller Why? You think Abrams is a bad Pick?
Yes and you thinking SHE is intelligent just Proves how Rare it really is ! Especially amongst the Liberal Party !
Bob Miller She has the vocabulary of a Harvard scholar (which she is), unlike “mr. bigly” the man who left unpaid contractors in N.Y. and N.J.
deepak nayak manel 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Please say yes 🤣😂🤣😂
Don’t matter ! Joe needs someone to go down with him ! When he loses !
Michele Obama would be a great choice too but she doesn’t want the VP job.
@Michael Anderson Poor deluded soul. Go outside and take a deep breath. It may clear your mind.
@hmxr I see, You’ve nothing to say and you can’t debate the facts.
She’s smart ! Why be a Loser ?
@Grumbleback You lefts literally cried for over 4 years because Hillary lost the election. Let’s see how your “Heads” handle another loss you idiots are responsible for lol
She?
Love Stacey Abrams! Hope the Biden/Abrams ticket is successful!
Lol and the moon is green cheese.
@Bob Miller I would believe that over any statement that comes out of Trump’s mouth.
If you hope in one hand and crap in the other ! Guess what hand would fill up first ?
The dementia patient and the token. LMAO. Identity politics is not winning for you guys.
@Linda Scott Orange Man Bad amiright?
It‘s so refreshing to see that there are still politicians that can speak in complete, well thought-out sentences.
@thomas kenyon Bit more than Trump. Not difficult.
@greg j As Trumpist, you are middle aged, left school at 14, toothless white & racist.:) U kinda are recognizable physically, and virtually: since you’re living in a imaginary world, there are no facts to back your rethoric, so you keep trumping (insulting).
Lol what? What a low standard.
M worr What a ridiculous comment.
I was referring to this:
Reporter:
“You’ve spoken about your friend who passed away – I was wondering if you have spoken to the families of anyone else who’s lost loved ones to covid-19, if there’s any particular stories that affected you?”
Trump:
“Well, I have, I have many people I know many stories – I’ve spoken to three maybe I guess four families unrelated to me, I did, I lost a very good friend, I also lost three other friends to whom I didn’t know as well but they were friends and people I did business with and probably almost everybody in the room did and it’s a – it’s a bad death, it’s not a – it’s, it’s a bad thing, it, it grips onto some people, now we found out that young people do extraordinarily well that’s why I think we can start thinking about schools but of course we’re ending the school season so get on that wouldn’t be probably you’d be back you wouldn’t be back for too long I noticed where Purdue … University, a great school in a great state wants to open and have students come in – I think that’s correct some colleges I think I saw Harvard wants to have students come back in the fall I would hope that they’d have a – have students I think that the whole concept of computer learning is wonderful but it’s not tele – tele learning but it’s not the same thing as being in a classroom in a great college or a college of any kind; college, university, there is nothing you can’t replace that. So hopefully they’re gonna be coming back young people do very well with this horrible scourge they do very well – so I am going to see you tomorrow and we’ll have other things to talk about we have a lot of – eh – interesting things I don’t think we should have a news conference today because this is a news conference in addition – it’s a celebration of these incredible people that have done such a good job and I think we’ve found a couple of stars in this room I won’t tell you who but there’re a couple – this guy right here is the biggest star in the room, right? We’ll all agree he’s the big- I – I vote, I vote for you, o.k.? You – you, a great job you’ve done and I really appreciated it, I appreciate you being here, couldn’t have done better.”
M worr Or maybe this:
Trump commenting on the Iran nuclear deal during a campaign rally in South Carolina on July 21, 2015. Try to follow the train of thought here:
“Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, okay, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, okay, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right — who would have thought?), but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.”
Love Stacy,She has compassion for people of all walks of life.,She walk her truth,and truly wants to help all people
@NOYDB as for the Cult of Trump, they will continue to support their Dear Leader. Unless they have a come to Jesus moment on their hospital bed grasping for breath waiting for a ventilator or at the online funeral for their loved one.
Or else succumb to Covid19 after not social distancing at a rally, in which case, no vote for anyone.
@Linda Scott keep ur legs closed
What about people who don’t walk ?
She doesn’t like white people that much obviously. You guys continue and continue to go down this identity politics road and it isn’t helping you.
Hey Linda how Centrist is it to grope little girls and just about every other female besides? Never Trumpers yeah, cause they are and always have been total fakes.
As a middle-aged white dude from midwest I say—PLEASE, MR. Biden, put this woman on the ticket.
@Victoria Manuel Lester So you have a Presidential candidate who is locked in his basement with rapidly declining mental acuity (face it..he has dementia and can barely construct a sentence) paired with someone whose main attributes are that she is black and she is a woman. She has limited experience which, as you know….is largely unproven. Not a great combination. You had 4 years to come up with formidable challengers to Trump…and this is what you came up with? Wake up now…it will make the loss later easier to take.
@R L T, If you sincerely believe that Stacey do not qualify for a Biden Vice President ticket, then, I would like to remind you that this is America and all things are possible…. Trump winning or stealing the Presidential seat for 4 years without any government experience is proof enough. But, in the final analysis, let everyone vote for the candidate of their choice as long as it done fairly.
@Victoria Manuel Lester Trump had decades of business experience. Unlike even Obama. Bernie Sanders never held a real job in the private sector ever. I am not aware that Trump “stole” the election. What evidence do you have of that fact? The Electoral College is here to stay. Please be sure that the Democrat Candidate is fully aware of our election process…unlike Hillary who apparently never heard of the Electoral College. As for Stacey Abrams….I guess I really don’t care about her all that much. I think Biden…a candidate in failing mental health ….has virtually no chance of winning anything.
@R L T, if Biden is failing mental health as you call it, you of all people should be able to recognize it since Trump has had mental health issues before running for President. Unfortunately, Trump nor his supporters understood that running a business is totally different from running the United States of America.
@Victoria Manuel Lester His supporters understand fully…that running a country like a business makes sense. Up until the Pandemic…Record Stock Market. Record Unemployment. Record unemployment among minorities. Record low welfare. Secured our southern border. Stood up to China. Implemented Right to Try. Rebuilt our Military. Axed the silly Iran deal. Renewed support for law enforcement. Forced NATO members to pay their fair share. Did more for relations with NK than all of the preceding Presidents combined. For these reasons, he will be reelected despite a biased media that has sought to oust him before he was inaugurated. Trump supporters…are excited about the prospect that Biden will be your nominee….but for different reasons. Enjoy. You had 4 years to come up with a formidable opponent. It turned out just fine.
STACY FOR VP 👍👏🇺🇸
Go get ‘em Stacey!!!
Nurse Blacke unfortunately she either employs incompetent people or is incompetent herself. See the 2018 Georgia election
Ryan A the stolen election? I don’t trust anything. I register every year to make sure I’m not mysteriously purged from the voting rolls? What do U think of that so called governor now? Opening businesses when the cases are going up? 800 deaths? Yeah she’s incompetent though…
I’m staying home in Oklahoma. I’m praying for you all in Georgia. 🙋🙏😷
Stay safe. Lived in Lawton for a bit; small, but wonderful town.
Thank you from Oklahoma for your prayers. If Stacy had won the Governorship in Georgia, we would have had an intelligent leader that cares about people.
@Bfoots1952 Obama’s been out of office for over 4 years now.
Do what you must do. But the CORONAVIRUS is everywhere. Yes, stay home. That is the safest place right now.
I LOVE to hear an intelligent, well-spoken black woman!!
Love those identity politics.
“I believe women, but not if it deprives me of a good job as Vice President.”
