Stacey Abrams: Why Republicans Are 'Hysterical' About Suppressing The Vote | The ReidOut | MSNBC
Stacey Abrams is a BOSS! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
@Federalist Papers OHHH, nice one. You’re so good at that. Of course, you’re probably obese, with 3-4 comorbidities, and struggling with that single-wide payment.
@Arishem34
Did I strike a nerve, double wide, fat boy,? I can bench press more than Abrams weighs without breaking a sweat.
@Federalist Papers your mama must be so proud lil boy
@Federalist Papers I seriously doubt that. Think about it.
No, she’s not.
Proud of you Stacy Abrams, I’m proud of you.
Stacey the entire world is watching and we love you! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
@Susan Mathers What did she do to help out her own race when she opened that pie hole and helped move baseball to another state. She hates her own race.
@Myrna D BLM they do not look white to me.
@Susan Mathers Unlike the demoRATS.
@Jeff Libby She is also a product of America. Only in America can a stacey abrams exist alongside the pathetic.
@Myrna D She sure is a pathetic rat, could care less what any liberal has to say, nothing worse than a big mouth racist who brought financial harm to her own race.
Stacey schooled Kennedy…Like movies voting should just be an app
@whiteindianone She is a racist who opposes voter ID laws.
@whiteindianone are you nuts?
@Susan Mathers i must show a ID to get a flight, cash a check, remove money from my acount. you are a racist.
@Harry Mann like to cash a check? you are a racist. think this over.
How so? She never proved her point unless you agree with her that minorities are lesser people. Don’t agree with her.
I literally cannot think of someone better to answer this question.
I mean, that, zero sarcasm.
I lend you my ear, Mrs. Abrams.
Stacy, McDonalds called and said your order is ready for pick up, and bring a forklift.
@jerome dupree The GOP kids are at it again.
@jerome dupree LMAO – You mean Trump
Keep fighting queen!!!! A king sees you and honor your hard work for Equality!!!!❤💪
Be honest. She is a lonely spinster, that never gets a 2nd glance.
@Federalist Papers She is just cashing huge checks and you are a hater that she could buy. But, she prefers her dates to have baths and jobs. That aint you
…and questioning the intellect of all minorities. Let’s be honest.
Honestly, she is a smart, smart lady. Very well spoken.
@Adam Parisi

Shrek
@Morbidly Oppressed
Lmaoooooo
You trolls are funny
Yes she would have been governor if the current didn’t cheat
Agree…..she is amazing.
Stacey Abrams, much respect to you and Thank You.
I love when black women speak about voting rights and politics
Who Is “Privileged”: The race that has scholarships that ONLY apply to students of that race.
Who Is “Privileged”: The race that gets the job based on their race, over those of other races who are equally or better qualified.
Who Is “Privileged”: Those people who cannot be fired or even reprimanded for not doing their job, because of their race and hold the threat of discrimination.
Who Is “Privileged”: The race that is given greater preference in Civil Servants Exams.
Who Is Privileged”: The race that Corporations are holding positions open for, completely overlooking qualified applicants because they are not of said race.
Who Is “Privileged”: Those people who can loot & burn with impunity, even though such actions are illegal.
Who Is “Privileged”: The race that operates television networks with content & actors solely of that race, holds awards shows that are not open to other races and operates colleges that are open solely for those of that race.
So, CHECK YOUR RACE. If these apply to you, YOU are “Privileged”!!!
FACT: ALL of these are contributors to the perpetuation of racism in this country!
I thought the Republicans were worried about vote SECURITY yet they pass voter SUPPRESSION. WTF I don’t see removing voting on Sunday as security
EXACTLY 💙🇺🇸✌️
You are dumb
@Dale Kinderman and that makes you dumber….
Bravo to these 2 intelligent and strong BW!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
you are a racist
@whiteindianone who
@whiteindianone Everyone is entitled to stupidity, but you really abused the privilege.
Miss Stacey sloggs through the muck and the stench and the guck that IS the GOP with SUCH grace. A beacon of LOVE and Light and a Leader for us all. Blessings to her as we are all blessed by her!
@Charles Talarico Stuffing the ballot box too with fake ballots.
@Jay Carlson A Fat one too!
@Pro’ se Kim, you literally have two teeth remaking in your addled skull, Hunh? Bye troll.
@GiGi triggered much snowflake ? Strike a nerve ?
She’s a puppet.
It must really burn Sen. Kennedy when he realized that he was being schooled by a black woman who was more intelligent and more informed on the issues at hand than he was! LOVED that moment!
@Troy Baisden supression by asking for an ID? What’s wrong with that?
@Troy Baisden yall have storyline but no specifics
@RockGoddess Candice Owens is a Democrat no go zone, the left have no idea on how to attack her, she wins every time…
@thrax bottom why not just pack a brown bag lunch with whatever drink you have.
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, LMAO COMPLETELY ! 🤗😁🤣😂😉
Stacy is so succinct and intelligent in all her interviews and hearings. It’s hard for these old white guys to keep up with logic, common sense, and a little campassion for voters. Thank you Ms. Abrams.
The Zoom helped Kennedy hem and haw in her inquisition. Loved how her answers had him yarbling on.
Zach-you’re simply stating facts, not ‘race baiting’. Racism doesn’t go away by not talking about it or pretending it doesn’t exist.
@S Jeffries Wow, I’m white yet shocked at how ignorant you are. Why are you so angry? Are you educated on the atrocities POC have suffered since the birth of this nation?
@A.C. A. I see you have NO answers!! Thank you for proving my points!!
@S Jeffries PS-We all know what race was able to loot, burn, riot and lynch without legal ramifications, here’s a hint, they wore white hoods. As for your other examples, ask yourself why these ‘privileges’ came to be. Must be because POC were doing so well and were so over represented. 🙄
WOW!!! Two Amazing, bright, articulate women!!!! Thank you! 💕
Keep going Ms. Abrams. It can’t be easy – know that your voice is heard, appreciated and valued! I hope you have enough support to keep your message out there. You make a difference in our world. Thank you!
Stacey deserves our prayers every day…she is on the front line every day putting of the fight for good. ❤️
Vote you lousy zealot. praying is not enough lazy.
There’s zero evidence that prayers affect anything at all. Actions are what we need, not superstition.
@Rene Jean Prayer is the least you can do. They very least.
Maura, the left don’t care about religion. Your on the wrong side. Wake up. Religion and family values are their enemy.
This woman’s intelligence shines like a North Star.
Tell that to the thousands of businesses that lost out on millions.
For the white state of Colorado to profit from. Yeah that’s intelligent.
I am a woman hear me roar! Thank you, for your roar for America!
God bless Stacey Abrams. I hope she stays healthy, lives a long time, and stays active in American politics. Great brains and a big heart, a winning combination for your country. Good luck to the USA.
I hope Stacy Abrams gets the Nobel Peace Prize 💖🌻💜💗🤟🎉
