Stacey Abrams, former Democratic candidate for governor in Georgia, delivered the Democratic response to President Donald Trump's State of the Union on Tuesday. In that speech, she repeated the fake news that Trump's administration put kids in cages.
"This administration chooses to cage children and tear families apart," Abrams declared.
The viral photo of a child in a cage did not come from Trump's immigration policy, however. The photo came from a protest against the Trump administration. Other photos came from 2014, during the Obama administration.
In May, Trump tweeted, "Democrats mistakenly tweet 2014 pictures from Obama’s term showing children from the Border in steel cages. They thought it was recent pictures in order to make us look bad, but backfires. Dems must agree to Wall and new Border Protection for good of country...Bipartisan Bill!"
PolitiFact rated his statement "True."

DEMONRATS WOULD RATHER JUST KILL THE KIDS.
Yep, they save money by eliminating the need for cages.
The Democrats would be okay with it if the administration said they will keep the kids comfortable while discussions take place.
I like the comment made by another Freeper on another thread about Abrams’ response was that while Hillary reminds many of their ex wives, Abrams reminds you of the one you dealt with at the DMV.
Her speech was pathetic wasn’t it?
And why did they have an audience behind her, them seeing her backside, instead of in front of her, watching her?
If her democrat bosses would have ordered her to say that the Trump administration kills kids in wood chippers, she would have said it. Very little truth in her words. She failed to address the words and thoughts of her comrade Northam who wants to kill babies who are already born. These are a bunch of sad SOB’s......
Thank you.
She obviously forgot Obama started it and all the pictures of kids wrapped in silver blankets in cages were from his time on office.
If they actually photoshopped an audience behind her, that is bizarre. (*photo shop is not the term for live TV)
Another poster said that after her response, they had to rush her to Taco Bell, Burger King, McD’s and Popeye’s for a “snack.”
And why Abrams wasnt interviewed in post-SOTU news clips.........she was in a food coma.
It was actually very well delivered. Just void of content.
OBAMA 2.0.
Which was the whole point of having her, a loser, deliver it. It was totally about promoting Stacey Abrams as a rising Democrat star. She’s not going anywyhere.
Well, I can't imagine her "rising" anywhere unless she gets on the Oporah diet.
Abram’s didn’t even listen to the speech! She had a prepared commentary (script) for afterwards that had little relevance to what was spoken in the chambers. Which shows a lack of originality of thought, rather sad for someone who toutes herself as the voice of the democratic party and demands to be heard. I guess she would do well or maybe just as well as BHO, the king of teleprompters himself.
“Stacey Abrams as a rising Democrat star”
I do not know if she’s a rising star, but I’m sure she could probably float pretty well.
Like all the girls wearing the same color to be "in".
Her mouth is so big, her teeth don’t fit
“And why did they have an audience behind her, them seeing her backside, instead of in front of her, watching her?”
I could not even see the people BEHIND her..
