While Hillary Clinton, who famously lost to Donald Trump in the 2016 election, has reemerged within the Democratic Party once again, another liberal is also making waves as they become a key figure for the party. Although Clinton might be a strong contender for the upcoming presidential election, Georgia’s Stacey Abrams has gained a significant amount of ground among Democratic voters. Hoping to capitalize on her stardom, Abrams recently sat down with The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah where she compared herself to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The Democrats might be known for saying some outlandish things, but in the video below, Abrams was discussing her fight for voter rights when she believed it was somehow the same as the people in Ukraine fighting for their lives. Abrams said, “We are a stronger nation when we allow people to participate. And if we ever doubted that, the war that Putin is waging against Ukraine, President Zelenskyy said it, and I’m going to paraphrase him, probably poorly. He said this isn’t a war on Ukraine, this is a war on democracy in Ukraine.” Causing even Noah to be taken back by the absurd comparison, Abrams continued, “When we allow democracy to be overtaken by those who want to choose who can be heard, and those choices are not based on anything other than animus or inconvenience, then that is wrong.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
