Experience mattered in 2016 and Stacey Abrams doesn't have it for 2020
Washington Examiner ^ | May 21, 2020 | Eddie Scarry

Jennifer Rubin may have forgotten most everything she ever knew before 2016, but she at least appears to have retained the knowledge that experience stands for something. She otherwise wouldn’t have dedicated an entire column on Wednesday to calling anyone who questions Abrams’s experience — what else? — racist.
.
.
.
Let it be known that filing paperwork to register the name of a nonprofit group and give a speech on TV are now major “accomplishments” on a presidential level, according to Rubin.

Abrams has, of course, done some things. She won a state-level seat in several races, wherein she had no opponent. She lost her race for governor.

Judged on the color of her skin not on her character.

She would be a terrific VP candidate for Joe, and extend her losing streak.

I’m betting the dems do everything they possibly can to block a debate Trump vs biden. I see them prolonging the shutdown long enough to prevent there being a debate.

Imagine what the debate would be like: “Good evening, Joe, do you know where you are and what you’re running for?”

No. The dems do NOT want a debate. Instead, they will concentrate on blaming Trump for the virus and on canonizing biden and his VP pick.

She has never won a “state level race.” She has won state house seats but they are run in districts of about 60-70,000 people, far from the 10,000,000 residents at state level.

After being exposed to an inexperienced school teacher cum governor during and after Hurricane Katrina, I do not believe the female psyche can handle always being second best, and then thrust into the white house upon the death of an already senile president.

Yeah, but Stacey Abrams COULD have been governor, and she must have a political position through the shadow government of Georgia of just about every action that Governor Kemp has carried out since assuming office.

Legitimacy be damned. Morally Stacey has already served three years as Georgia Governor in her mind, and that gives her status as a contender.

I heard her quoted as saying she has 25 years of foreign policy experience, because she’s done a lot of reading and studying on her own.

If those are the criteria then everyone on this site would have a great amount of experience in foreign affairs.

Wasn’t he the 44th president of the United States?

She’s a woman. She’s an attitudinal black person.

Isn’t that enough?

Stacey did something else no one else has ever done.

She found high heels with titanium heels that hold up her solid bulk when she stands up to diss evil white minorities.

Let it be known that for presidential level politics, these are now major “accomplishments:”
<><> filing paperwork to register the name of a nonprofit group;
<><> naming yourself as sole check-casher;
<><> get hand-picked by identity-obsessed Democrats to give a speech on TV;
<><> dine on the cuisines of several countries for foreign policy experience;
<><> win a state-level seat in several races with no opponents;
<><> losing a race for governor to a bigoted white man.

She's a fat, ugly, stupid, divisive, racist pig. She'd be a perfect representative of the current democrat party.

From a site called “TheNextWeb: Yes, this kid is actually saying, “That’s Racist!” It’s an interstitial from ‘Wonder Showzen,’ a sketch comedy program on MTV2 in the mid-2000s that appeared to be a parody of a children’s educational show, like ‘Sesame Street,’ but substituting lessons on how to count or tie your shoes with ridiculous gore and black comedy. Fun fact: one of the creators is the voice of Towelie from ‘South Park’!

Not to mention that even the dimmest FReeper has more brains in his/her pinkie finger than Abrams has in her entire body.
