Now that the State of the Union Address is back on (for now, anyway), that means the Democratic response is back on, too. And according to Chris Hayes’ “reliable source,” Dems have picked a real peach to deliver it:
?NEWS?
A reliable source tells me that Chuck Schumer called STACEY ABRAMS three weeks ago to ask her to deliver the Democratic response to the State of the Union.

Libs are legit thrilled at the prospect of Stacey Abrams getting a national platform from which to whine about stuff:
If it's what you say it is, I love it.

If that’s true, you need to get out more. Because Stacey Abrams is a joke. Hopefully this business about her delivering the Dems’ response is a joke, too.

Oh, lawdy. It’s really happening:
Sen. Schumer confirms what @chrislhayes reported first: @staceyabrams will give Dem response to State of the Union

Sigh.
Hard to botch a response from a star in your party if they already lost their election I guess. Nothing to lose. https://t.co/UYR1hlvNXV

Good point.
In any event, gird your loins … and stock up on booze.
I look forward to not watching that, either. https://t.co/D3pBlf2hmb
