Sen. John Kennedy (R-Louisiana) questioned Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams on that state's ballot restricting legislation seemingly unaware how much Abrams knows about the law. MSNBC's Brian Williams shares the details. Aired on 04/21/2021.

1. Ugh...

... very tired of this guy's folksy acting. The Dukes of Hazzard went off the air a long time ago...

2. That's what you get when you underestimate Ms Abrams.

Did he actually think she wouldn't know what was in the bill? He had to ask her to stop as she knew more than him.

3. It's like he was trying to confuse her, but she turned the tables and confused him

Never misunderestimate Stacey Abrams! She knows her stuff!

4. My (Idiot) Senator

His act grew stale decades ago. The problem is that he responds to stereotype images of real people. He gets crushed by the folksy act when faced by well-prepared, detailed and professional political artisans.

Thank you Ms. Abrams.

5. "Cornpone" Kennedy gets his hat handed to him.

14. Have fun with it.

I remember a mean spirited Republican applying that moniker to Senator Sam Irvin, Democrat from North Carolina, who chaired a committee during the Nixon/Warergate. Irvin was "folksy" but he was for real.

16. Most people from the South

Are folksy. I am one of them, even though I was born in the State of the Underground Railroad.

I know a phony when I see one. That is also why I am a Democrat!

Thanks for the name.

11. Cornpone is good

A variation could be “conpone.”

Or even conpone cornpone.

15. Definitely a con man. It says plenty about the inteligence level

of his constituents.

7. MS. Abrams is my hero in so many

Ways. She really deserves not only the Nobel prize but the medal of freedom.
as well! I look forward to the day when I can cast my vote for President Abrams. She is the most qualified person I can think of.

[Trueblue Texan]

9. YES!!!!

She is brilliant, compassionate, fierce, determined, and principled. Could we ask for a more inspiring leader? I think not. I'd race to the polls to vote for Stacy Abrams!

[Rhiannon12866]

13. Same here!

I'm guessing that she has "lost" her last election and I'm sure we'll be hearing a lot more from her in the future!

10. This is hilarious

Highly recommended.

12. Kennedy barely has the wit to stomp on a slug.

Nor should he want to stomp on a close relative.

He should set his sights a lot lower than Stacey Abrams.
