Jimmy Kimmel Live! guest host Anthony Anderson welcomed the left’s favorite election denier, Stacey Abrams, to ABC on Monday to promote her new book but also to spread a new election conspiracy theory that alleges President Trump is following the ten steps to autocracy that people like Vladimir Putin have also done to ultimately cancel elections. However, Abrams’s evidence was as nonsensical as it was outrageous.
Anderson put the ball on the tee, “Stop stupid or slow it down, brings me to my next question. Over the weekend you went viral for laying out ten steps to autocracy. Run us through those steps so we all know.”
Abrams began by trying to make analogies, “Okay, so this happens in every nation that has become an autocracy, having been a democracy. So whether we're talking about Brazil with Bolsonaro, or India, or Putin and Russia, the Philippines with Duterte, so start with winning an election. Usually the last one you're going to get to have for real.”
