Joe Biden tried unsuccessfully for 32 years to be president of the United States. I don’t know of any other qualified candidate. Stacey Abrams desperately wants to run for governor of Georgia.
“Again,” in her delusional mind.
Abrams who lost in her 2018 bid for the gubernatorial elections to Republican Brian Kemp did not concede. On the contrary, Abrams insists she was elected. I can only think of two people who have had the same problem in six years. But that’s digressing.
Abrams’s 2018 loss to Kemp was close — and now, having won their respective primaries, the 2022 rematch promises more of the same; Kemp held a five-point margin in a late May The Real Clear Politics poll.
Both sides have the gloves off.
Kemp, on Wednesday, released a blistering campaign ad in which he included video of Abrams, “in her own words,” agreeing in principle with defunding America’s police departments.
Stacey Abrams declared that she would DEFUND police officers! Abrams’ soft-on-crime policies are dangerous for Georgia.
As Governor, I will continue to fight to give our law enforcement the resources they need to keep Georgia families safe.
Abrams was coaxed into the admission by CNN’s Alisyn Camerota, but she made it just the same.

Abrams serves as a member of a defunding/abolitionist board. However, she continues to argue that the Defund discussion is a “false choice idea.”
I think we’re being drawn into this false choice idea. The reality is we need two things …We’ll use different language to describe it, but, fundamentally, we must have reformation and transformation.
What is the best way to put it into practice? How do I put this in tact?This mean? What else is there to Democrat doublespeak? Abrams made similar comments to ABC “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos in June 2020.
“We are being drawn into a false choice idea,” Stacey Abrams says when asked about movement to defund the police.
“We need reformation of how police officers do their jobs,” and ” a transformation of how we view the world of law enforcement,” she adds. https://t.co/7WByV7jAwx pic.twitter.com/Lu6RZ36Mbt

It was back then. This is today. Abrams seems to have made a change in her mind with violent crime rising across America, and there being no sign of an end. “Coincidentally,” on the very next day after Kemp’s campaign ad was released. “Now,” says Abrams, “law enforcement [officers] are often paid less than a living wage, and that is wrong.”
Wait — wut? Abrams called for a raise raiseFor cops.
As we build trust in the community and promote law enforcement accountability, it is important to raise officer salaries and combat violent crime.
That wasn’t nebulous as hell at all, right?
Many law enforcement officers are paid less than their living wages. This is unacceptable.

Abrams, having fully “evolved” — Democrats always “evolve”; they never flip-flop — continued to pour it on.
Staffing shortages in Georgia’s urban and suburban areas pose a threat to communities.
Officer pay increases will result in better recruitment and retention of officers, improved community interaction, and safer Georgia.
What is the story of this lady and who are they?
The staff shortages that threaten communities in Georgia, both rural and urban areas, make it difficult for law enforcement to enforce the laws.
A higher officer salary will increase officer recruitment, retention and community involvement, making Georgia safer.

And what is Abrams’s plan?
Increase the base salary of state officers by $50k/year [What about city police in urban areas where violent crime flourishes, Ms. Abrams?]
To support higher salaries, grant localities [sic]For local law enforcement [What are the specifics and what are grant monies tied to?]
Support for mental health and law enforcement [What about mental health support that helps take wackos off our streets, when possible, before they go full-metal crazy and commit horrific crimes?]
Invest [taxpayer-funded]Collaboration support for expanded training. [Collaborative support with whom or what entities?]
Again, few specifics, mostly rhetoric — in an election year. You can see the pattern.
Here’s how I plan to do this:
✅State officers’ base salaries to be increased by 50k/year
✅Localities can receive grants for increased salaries to help them enforce the law.
✅Law enforcement officers can get secure mental health care
✅Invest in training expansion and collaboration support— Stacey Abrams (@staceyabrams) June 23, 2022
It’s hard to see Abrams’s latest flip-flop helping her cause or that of the Democrat Party as a whole. My RedState friend Sister Toldjah stated in March that Abrams’s latest flip-flop would help her cause or the Democrat Party as a whole. Stacey Abrams is now an Albatross to Democrats.
Now Joe Biden and all of the Democrat Party are an albatross.
