CNN Excited by 'Talented' Failed Candidate Stacey Abrams 'Seizing Her Moment' Running in 2020

After talking about former Vice President Joe Biden’s potential run, co-anchor Poppy Harlow moved on to ask CNN political analyst and writer for Time magazine Molly Ball her thoughts on Abrams’ announcement. Harlow gushed, “What sort of hole would she fill with her candidacy if she opts in that isn’t filled with a candidate so far?” Referencing Abrams’ tweet announcing 2020 was "on the table," she added, “Is there any risk here of going too fast?”

Ball agreed there was “always a risk” for new candidates, but that it was Abrams’ time to “seize her moment” for 2020:

“Sure, that's always a risk for up-and-coming candidates, but I think if you're a politician, you always want to be seizing your moment if you have one,” she gushed, adding, “You know, Stacey Abrams is ambitious and talented.” She went on to argue that Abrams’ “fresh face” and “new and compelling voice” could stand out in the field of “old white men” on the ticket:

"new and compelling voice” could stand out in the field of “old white men".

And the widely encouraged (by the left) racism against White people on display at cnn...oh...and ageism too.

Hey, I'm going to vote for the fat, black chick that says "Write me a check Cracker, Ima gonna git paid!"

WARNING X-RATED LANGUAGE——wanabe Stacey Abrams used to moonlight as a steamy romance novelist. From 2001 to 2009, Abrams produced eight books under the pseudonym Selena Montgomery. She claimed to have sold over 100,000 copies and to have won several awards for her writing.

The Federalist on Friday posted several steamy passages from Abrams’ work.

From “Secrets and Lies” (2006): He thrust deep, control broken, shattered. Again and again, deeper and hotter and further than fantasy. With urgency, she accepted him, fascinated by the power, and for a moment, she wavered, wondering if she was prepared. In the next second, she knew she could never be. Kat moved beneath him, her body too full to stay motionless. Theirs mouths coupled, imitating the dance that frenzied her limbs, wrapping her into him. Sebastian flew above her, driven to claim and imprint himself forever. He nuzzled her breast, finding the wild beats, and pressed a kiss just there, sealing his fate.

From “Reckless” (2009): ‘Love me,’ he demanded, taking her up once more. Afraid she did, Kell kissed him, a merger that spoke words she wasn’t ready to say aloud. Arousal, ravenous and craven, bent to a stronger, more fragile need that consumed her. She opened for him, and he plunged inside, dragging her to him. The rhythm caught them both, drove them to demand then offer. Endlessly, wonderfully, they fell into the greedy darkness and fought to give more than either could have imagined. An explosion, his, hers, theirs, brought twin cries and release.

As a Hollywood casting agent with the proper designation, she’s ugly. I cant even stand looking at that stupid mug..

The reason why she became the darling of the Hollywood left is because she’s black, hates whitey and hates Trump. The checkmarks all filled in..

Why haven’t fat slobs been dealt in at the protected class table? That would probably be the largest class of aggrieved (once someone convinces them they’re aggrieved) in the country. Chris Christie ham handedly fumbled this opportunity.

Nothing that I know of has losers designated as winners and qualified to go to the next level after losing. It’s very perverted.

I guess she’s seizing her “moment” in the moments she’s not seizing some kind of food to stuff in her piglike mouth. Oink!
