Stacey Abrams: Trump’s judgment of me is ‘vapid and shallow’

Published



Stacey Abrams, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate in Georgia, on Sunday shrugged off President Trump’s jabs at her credentials, touting “unprecedented” voter turnout two days before Election Day that she hopes will help her become the state’s first black woman governor.

“I find his assessments to be vapid and shallow,” Abrams said during an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “I am a business owner. I’m a tax attorney, who was trained at Yale Law School. I am a civic leader who helped register more than 200,000 Georgians. I am a very accomplished political leader who worked across the aisle to improve access to education, transportation, and I blocked the single largest tax increase in Georgia’s history.”
