Stacey Abrams is back in the headlines, not with a message of unity or constructive dialogue, but with yet another hyperbolic, fear-driven tirade disguised as a “warning” to America. This time, she’s peddling her so-called “10 Steps to Autocracy”—a thinly veiled attempt to smear President Donald Trump while ignoring her own party’s blatant power grabs. The liberal media, ever eager to amplify her hysterics, paints her as some kind of democratic savior. But let’s be clear: Abrams isn’t defending democracy—she’s gaslighting the American public to distract from the Left’s own authoritarian tendencies.
Abrams’ list reads like a Democrat wishlist rather than a critique of Trump. “Winning an election, expanding executive power, neutering Congress and the courts”—sound familiar? That’s because it’s exactly what the Biden administration has been doing for years. While Abrams hyperventilates about Trump’s “abuse of power,” Biden has been ruling by executive fiat, bypassing Congress and the courts at every turn.

Student loan bailouts? Unconstitutional overreach.

Vaccine mandates? Coercive government control.

Weaponizing the DOJ against political opponents? Straight out of the Third World dictator handbook.
Yet, when Trump exercises his lawful authority, the Left shrieks about tyranny. The hypocrisy is staggering.
Abrams warns that Trump will “silence the media”—a laughable claim from someone whose party has actively colluded with Big Tech to censor conservatives. Remember when Twitter suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story? When Facebook shadow-banned Republican voices? When the White House pressured social media companies to silence dissent? That’s not Trump’s doing—that’s the Left’s playbook in action.
Meanwhile, President Trump has been a champion of free speech, fighting against Big Tech censorship and calling out the media’s blatant bias. The real threat to free expression comes from the Left, which seeks to control the narrative by silencing anyone who dares to challenge its agenda.
Abrams absurdly claims Trump will “cancel elections”—a projection so blatant it’s almost comical. The same party that tried to remove Trump from state ballots, pushed mail-in voting chaos, and rigged the 2020 Democratic primary for Biden now has the audacity to accuse Trump of undermining democracy? Please.
President Trump has always embraced the electoral process, holding massive rallies, engaging in debates, and energizing voters. Meanwhile, Democrats have spent years undermining election integrity, opposing voter ID laws, and pushing policies that invite fraud. If anyone’s trying to manipulate elections, it’s the Left.
Abrams even trots out the tired lie that Trump will “send in the National Guard to kidnap people off the streets.” This is pure fantasy. Trump deployed troops to protect federal property from violent riots—riots that Democrats openly encouraged. While cities burned under Democrat leadership, Trump acted to restore order. The Left’s narrative crumbles under the slightest scrutiny.
Watch
This isn’t about Trump—it’s about deflection. Abrams and the liberal media are projecting their own tactics onto Republicans, hoping nobody notices their power grabs. While they scream about “autocracy,” they’re the ones consolidating power, silencing dissent, and rigging the system.
President Trump, in contrast, has fought to return power to the people—cutting regulations, defending free speech, and standing up to the swamp. The Left’s fearmongering is nothing more than a smokescreen to hide their own undemocratic ambitions.
