NeverMoulton

I thought this was going to be from the onion

LMAO... Why is it that anything that happens that someone don't like.... Racism seems to be the excuse EVERYONE runs to these days The only racism is coming from those screaming it constantly. She lost. Even with an EXTRA 1.4 million more VOTERS VOTING...

CNN you should be proud to hiring yourself a racist

Bullshit....Rep. , she lost.......Period

OH MY GOD JUST STOP IT PLEASE!!! Stacey Abrams isn't Governor of Georgia because she's a leftist, liberal Democrat and wanted to turn Georgia into the dysfunctional mess that is Calfornia! She's a liberal fool and hasn't a CLUE what Georgians want. THAT's why she lost!!!!

What a bold face LIE and nobody calls out this race baiter. doesn't even challenge this Liar. sethmoulton

facts

What a stretch of his imagination

What a sty thing to say!!!

How can anyone be running and not be a Socialist platform. That is what AOC wants and they are following her.

So elect Obama twice, but reject Abrams and we are all racist? Maybe she was a lame candidate like Hillary? Oh wait, she lost because of sexism...or was it Russians? Never because they plain suck

That's BS she just didn't have what they wanted

When you have voter repression by the person in charge of the election and then that same person becomes the elected governor then yes, everyone who votes for him is either racist or just doesn’t mind racists being elected to office. Mmk. Bye.

She lost because of corruption, not racism. Kemp was the Secretary Of State, which means he was running the election. Georgia is 30% black, which means a lot of white people voted for her. If it was strictly race, it wouldn't have been a dead heat. Should have been a recount

What a foolish statement to make. Dems delusions of an altered reality doesn't make it come true.

Um, go talk to Hillary Clinton! Losers make excuses. The never lose because they just did not get as many votes! 😂😂

Idiot.

And Hillary Clinton might have won the democrat primary and John McCain might have won the presidency in 2008 if Americans hadn’t...checks notes...chosen a half-black man instead. So racist...

Did someone let him know...only Georgians vote for governor?

U people remember the vote right she lost .

sethmoulton, staceyabrams is a racist. Race was an integral part of her campaign. GA did not reject her because she's Black, rather because of her politics.

IKR. Because Republicans would have never voted for the Republican if she was white.

Do Democrats have a weekly pool to see who can say the stupidest shit?

Racism racism racism 😉

Might as well insult everyone. Maybe some people don’t get elected because they’re not qualified.

Right! And HillaryClinton is the POTUS. You just blew all TheDemocrats minds! Prepare for Trump2020 Landslide.

Fake news

Hahahahhahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha libtard psychopaths

So enlighten us Brainiac, how did Obama get elected? Stacy is not Governor because she was over 50k votes shy. When will the Democrats just lose with a litttle decorum and class? Answer: NEVER Just ask Hillary.

He's not wrong. Systematic disenfranchisement of black voters and suspect machines gave the win to the guy in charge of counting the votes in his own election.

He’s right. AndrewGillum in Florida too.

He only said that to get the vote.wake the F up .It's about money not color. Left wing and right wing belong to the same bird.they say what's convenient at the time.trailer park to ghetto.the poor pay for the rich to play.voices silenced by min wage.hands up and out of luck.love

Truth truth

The US is one of the least racist countries on Earth.

Truth. Equally as significant is if the GOP wasn't so intent on lying, cheating & stealing in order to 'win'.

What does Moulton have in common with 8 of the 9 members of Congress from his state, also with both Mass. senators, and the Mass. governor? They're all white and mostly male, instead of lecturing us he should show us by stepping down to make way for a minority to fill his seat.

Wow...just...wow.

Yep

So is this why John James lost also

Didn’t we have a black president? Seems like he served 2 terms.

.... racebaiter

I think his words should have been if we didn’t have a racism problem in America , not US wasn’t fascist as in all.

Should be isn't what voters wanted.

So racist that Barack Obama was elected twice.

Snowflakes

On point!!!
