Two-time failed Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams lashed out at CNN this week, falsely claiming that the network was spreading "disinformation" about remarks that she did, in fact, make after losing her first gubernatorial campaign in 2018.
Abrams got into a spat with CNN host Kaitlan Collins on Tuesday night after Collins brought up how Abrams denied the results of the 2018 election and insisted that she had won and that the election was stolen.
"I do remember the time you told The New York Times 'I won,'" Collins noted. "You did describe it as a stolen election. The courts did side with the Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, in some of the challenges as well."
Abrams fired back: "Kaitlan, that's actually incorrect and normally I wouldn't cut you off. But you're repeating disinformation."
Abrams said that she has "never claimed to be the Governor of Georgia," which is not something that Collins ever accused her of saying.
After losing her election, Abrams refused to concede and claimed dozens of times that "it was a stolen election".
In 2019, Abrams claimed: "I didn't lose. I got the votes. But we won't know exactly how many because of how they cheated."
She also claimed in 2019 that she knows in her "heart of hearts, we won".

But she's black (small B) and Democrat, so it's okay for her to deny an >election and refuse to concede.
Just like Hillary spent the four years of the Trump presidency claiming
it was an illegitimate election, but that's okay.
It only becomes "an existential threat to democracy" when a Republican
does it.

There were problems with the Georgia voter registration process during
that period that appear to have been fixed.
There's no equivalence with Trump calling Raffensperger, ordering him to
find a few more votes so that Trump could have been declared to have won Georgia.
That's evidence of wide-scale problems that may have been enough to
change Abrams outcome versus evidence of small-scale problems that
weren't enough to change Trump's outcome, plus numerous claims without evidence of a stolen election.
Your point fails.
Just like Hillary spent the four years of the Trump presidency claiming
it was an illegitimate election, but that's okay.
Oh, good grief. Nobody thought that was ok.
It only becomes "an existential threat to democracy" when a Republican
does it.
That's over-the-top rhetoric. I agree. But much of what Trump did post November 3 2020 was wrong, if not illegal and criminal. The attack ln Congress on January 6, 2021, was wrong, criminal, and illegal.
There's no equivalence and there's no reason to apologize for this.

Nobody except the entire legacy media establishment, which collectively >nodded along sagely whenever she made these claims, never pushed back on

Which is why I wasn't apologizing for it.
