this includes $50,000 in unpaid back taxes

muh fair share

muh blue wave

muh Georgia is in play

WARNING - CNN LINK

quote:

Abrams, 44, wrote an op-ed for Fortune explaining how student loans, cash-strapped parents, and a sibling who struggles with drug addiction contributed to her financial burden.

"Once you dig a hole, you're always trying to dig out," she told CNNMoney on Wednesday. "This is something I'm living everyday."

Abrams has openly discussed her money troubles before. And financial disclosure forms revealed last month that she owes $50,000 in back taxes and holds $170,000 in credit card and student loan debt.

And this was the BEST candidate the Democrats had?

I'm starting to think the Democrats hate themselves as a party and are trying to sabotage themselves.

Or giving enough rope to the womenz to hang themselves so the Dems can revert back to the party of old white men running things.

Nah, the Dems aren't that smart.

She graduated from Yale Law 20 years ago and still has student loans?

She was black and had a vagina.

She was the most "qualified" by a fricking mile

We sure this isn’t the result of a broke arse DNC who can’t afford to vet candidates or recruit winners?

They’re pretty much conceding the Texas Governor race and by extension the Senate race there. And now their hopes in Georgia are severely reduced.

Having a job doesn’t mean she paid shite on them.

I’ll refrain from details but a number of people don’t prioritize paying off those debts, resulting in fees, interest, and garnishments.

No, this is a direct result of their identity politics being the single biggest requirement for candidates. I've said this for a while, but they have to run non white women or they risk destroying their own narrative.

In other words, white ain't right, especially white guys.

Yet Hillary is still worth about half a billion dollars, when her last private sector job was a low 6 figure partner position at a Little Rock law firm 25 years ago.

Oh, I understand that. I'm just saying that you would think having a law degree from Yale would put someone in a position to knock out student debt in a reasonable amount of time.

She runs right into what the loony left thinks this country needs.

Her unpaid back taxes are obviously a result of the rich not paying enough. Some rich person is supposed to step up and pay that back tax bill.

Then, the rich are supposed to fork over even more tax money so the left can pursue that dream of having all student loans forgiven.

This Dem primary is a great example of why you just have to point at white liberals and laugh.

They really think a white man has a chance at ever winning a Dem primary!

This moron ran against a white female..........and blammo......

People. More than 60% of Georgia's primary voters in the Dem primary were black.

She followed The Democratic prescription- borrow , spend , make bad decisions, borrow some more, spend some more, ad nausem. And now she wants to make sure we all get to enjoy her choices. Very generous of her.

That was my point.

In the southern states, the Democrats can run a white lesbian married to a black guy and she's still going to get her arse kicked in a Dem primary by ANY black candidate.

This is what the left has built. I find it stunning they are surprised by this. White liberal democrats have built a party that even hates THEM!
