THIS WAS NOT RACIST 😡😡😡😡😡 This is why no one likes the media. DO BETTER!!!!

Perdue is not the kind of political candidate normal people want in office. Abrams will be a fantastic worker for her state. Go Stacey! All my best from 🇨🇦

Shmoo needs to go some place that wants her i dont think even california wants her

The Truth is ‘Wacist’. Why do you suppose we have a high incarceration rate? 13/50

[rickeedavenport]

She wasn't born in Georgia she lived somewhere else before she lived there. He may not have known it was for a short period of time. Her opinion about Georgia being the worse state could be very offensive to georgians even if her facts are true, she could be lying though. he commented on her comment. If you don't like it here for somewhere else. That's not very productive but i don't think that is racist. You are implying he meant Africa. That would be inappropriate but he would have to come out and say that. I don't like the word race. I feel like we are all the human race and share history. You wouldn't call a black cat a different race than a white cat. Her attacking black farmers is wrong. Why can't a black American be a farmer? Lots of people of different skin colors start out in low paying jobs such as the ones mentioned here. People should be encouraged to move up if they want to, but you shouldn't make people feel bad for the job they have.

Abrams is a horrible candidate. Divisive and not a good choice. Perdue comment was not racist. Nice try tho.

[MsK_byTheWay]

Let's get it done Georgians! Stacy Abrams, we support you!

[immobilien]

More propaganda and racist remarks from NBC.

[petermazilu]

Yes Morgan lets be VERY clear that is your opinion that his comment was racist NOT a fact. He was referring to the state she came from but once again lets use the oh so handy race card to corroborate the medias narrative.

[scottwilliams]

If you hate the State you live in . Leave . . No boddy is stopping . Georgia will help you pack

[winstonsmith]

Why doesn't NBC just outright endorse Stacy Abrams?

[BeefCurd]

"Go back to where she came from" is all I heard.

[AppalachianPatriot]

I didn’t hear any racist remarks. Joe Biden said something similar and that was ok so why the double standard?

[BridgKay]

She hates Georgia and it wasn’t racist what he said so stop with the racism BS!

[nubianwarriorgoddess]

I hate when Europeans tells someone to go back to where their from he needs to remember where he originated from this is indigenous land were all foreigners

[tonypitsacota]

She's got my vote. But I don't live in the Dominican Republic.
