Stacey Abrams Throws A Well-Timed Jab At Outgoing President Donald Trump
Source: The Washington Post / Getty Stacey Abrams is emerging as a star within the Democratic Party, this after she and other organizers have been credited with delivering Georgia for President-Elect Joe Biden.

The performance was filmed after Spektor’s Broadway run at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater last summer. She continued, “After the shows, we filmed the song at Roulette in Brooklyn, just to have a memory of that wonderful moment.
