\u201cDay after day, President Trump has spread hate, spouted lies, and misled the American people. And there\u2019s no doubt that he\u2019ll do the same next Tuesday. That\u2019s why Stacey Abrams is the perfect choice to give the Democratic response. Stacey didn\u2019t just inspire the people of Georgia last year, she electrified voters across the country with a powerful vision and a positive message of unity, inclusion, and opportunity. She is a rising Democratic star who embodies our party\u2019s values and our fight to build a brighter future for all.
