Starting point is 00:00:19 August 6, 2018. From Comedy Central's World News Headquarters in New York, this is the Danish show, everybody. Thank you so much for tuning in. I'm Trevor Noah. Our guest tonight, our guest tonight is the Democratic candidate for governor of Georgia. Stacey Abrams is joining us everyone. It's an amazing story.
Starting point is 00:01:05 If she wins, she will be the first black female governor in America's history. Yeah. While her opponent, her opponent, if he wins, he would be the 8,500th white-dued governor. So, history either way But first let's catch up on today's headlines Right now the nation of Venezuela is not having a good time the country's bankrupt There's food shortages and something tells me everyone is not a fan of the president Next to the alleged assassination attempt playing out on live TV, the president of Venezuela
Starting point is 00:01:45 speaking in a public square, interrupted by a series of blast. He messes... His bodyguards jumping in to protect him, holding up shields. The president says it was an attack by drones, armed with bombs. Okay, that is insane. Why are they trying to protect the president with yoga mats? Like, what is going on there? I knew that they were pretty left-leaning down there, but that's next level.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Quickly, get into downward dog, sir! Now, luckily for Maduro, he survived that attack, but I wouldn't be too secure if I were him because he's holding his military parade but did you see how they reacted when the explosion goes off? Incessi... What the hell is that military? It's like left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right. Left, right! Left, right! So it's still developing and this is really a weird story. I don't know what to make of it other than I like how Maduro wears a sash. It's like it's like he won Venezuela in a beauty pageants.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I love it. Meanwhile somewhere in the Middle East there's news about the world's worst royal wedding. And the son of Osama bin Laden is now married to the daughter of Mohammed Adda. And the son of Osama bin Laden is now the to to the the the the to the the the the thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thia thiaui. thiau-a. thoom. thi. thi. thiol-a. toldn. toldn. toldn. toldn. thiahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. to to to to to to to to to to thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tooom. tooom is now tooom. toeea. toea. toeim. toeim. toeim. toeim. toeim. toeim. tho Laden here on the left married the daughter of Mohammed Ada. The family says Hamza is now an al-Qaeda leader himself vowing to avenge his father's death. Wow, Bin Laden's son married a 9-11 hijacker's daughter. I guess congratulations to the happy couple. I mean if you want to get them a gift, they registered on the no-fly list. But yeah, I heard, I heard, I heard it was a really, really small intimate ceremony, you
Starting point is 00:03:34 know, just closest family and hostages. But you know, just like with every wedding, there was some terrorists who didn't want to attend, they had to come up with excuses. They were like, oh, I'm sorry, Hamza. I totally want to go, but I'm blowing myself up on Thursday, man. I'm sorry. In other news, for years, America's most famous conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones, has said that they are out to get him. Well, today, they got him. in removing content from Alex Jones and his Info Wars brand, each claiming the content violated their policies against glorifying violence and promoting hate.
Starting point is 00:04:12 That's right, Alex Jones is officially off all of the major platforms. And if you're one of Alex Jones's fans, this isn't as bad as it sounds, because you'll still be able to hear him everywhere on earth if he just speaks in his normal tone of voice. Yeah, I bet he'll try to sneak back onto YouTube though, pretending to be a vlogger. He's gonna be like, oh, what's up guys? It's me, Alex. Uh, no hate. This is my tutorial on how contouring is secretly controlling your mind.
Starting point is 00:04:38 All right, let's move on to our top story. This week, President Trump is officially on vacation, and he deserves it. Do you know how much effort it takes to destabilize the entire world? You don't. And for his retreat, the president will be staying at his country club in Bedminster, which is a real town in New Jersey, even though Bedminster sounds like the nickname Trump would give himself when he's relaxing. You know, sounds like he'd be like, for the rest of this week, I'm officially the bed minister. Pence, you're the vice-bed minister.
Starting point is 00:05:09 And now, unfortunately, even though Trump gets a vacation. We don't get a vacation from him. Because Saturday, he decided to take a break, from his break to attend a rally in Ohio for tomorrow's primary. And what's great is that nobody invited him to the primary. He just showed up. Yeah. And I don't know that Trump is now just crashing campaign rallies like the Kulet man. He's just, you know?
Starting point is 00:05:35 A guy is up on stage making a point about fiscal responsibility and Trump just burst through the wall like, who's ready to talk shit about Chuck Todd? Let's do it. Oh, and don't worry about the wall. Mexico will pay for it. They'll fix it. So, this was supposed to be a rally for an Ohio congressional candidate, but Trump decided to cover his face with Vaseline and campaign for his friends on Fox. MSNBC is so corrupt.
Starting point is 00:06:01 It's so disgusting. So disgusting. Here's the good news. The guys that we love, right? They're blowing them away in the ratings. Honity, Laura Engrop, Tucker Carlson, Steve Deucey, Aynsley, Ryan, so many others. They're blowing them away in the ratings. Oh, excuse me. I almost forgot I would have been in big trouble. The great Ludobs. Right? What?
Starting point is 00:06:32 How is this the president of the United States? Like, he sounds like a kid saying goodnight to their favorite stuffed animals. Good night, nighty night, Tucker, sleep tight, double deuce. Who am I forgetting? Of course, the great Lou Dobbs. Lou Dobbs, you fell under the bed, but I found you. You can't hide from the bed minister. You can.
Starting point is 00:06:54 I found you. I found you. I found you. And you might think that was weird, but something tells me on Monday morning, the Fox anchors came into work like this. Adity, Laura Engman, Tucker Carlson, Steve Deucey, Ayns, Ryan, the great blue doves. They're loving it. But remember, remember, this is the president's summer vacation, which means he has a lot of time on his thumbs, and he's putting it to good use.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Our top story this morning, President Trump taking to Twitter overnight to bash NBA superstar LeBron James. Mr. Trump wrote, LeBron James was just interviewed by the dumbest man on television, Don Lehmann, he made LeBron look smart, which isn't easy to do. Really? You know, Trump calling someone the dumbest man on television is like R. Kelly's singing about you locking girls up. Why is someone in your basement? Why won't you let her out? Really, R? So now, the president is beefing with LeBron.
Starting point is 00:08:06 But what exactly did King James do to get the president so mad? What would you say the president is sitting right here? I would never sit across long. One, because I believe our president is kind of, but I think, kind of. Yeah, he is. It is. Not I don't want to say kind. He's dividing us. And what I noticed over the last few months, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, think, kind of? Yeah, it is. Not I don't want to say kind. He's dividing us and what I noticed over the last few months, that he's kind of used sport to kind of divide us.
Starting point is 00:08:33 And that's something that I can't relate to because I know that sport was the first time I ever was around someone white. Wow. That is so powerful. Imagine going through your whole life and never realizing that there were other people out there who were so easy to dunk on. So once again, President Trump is feuding with a famous black person who dared to criticize him. And now it's got all this attention, which makes sense. So once again, President Trump is feuding with a famous black person who dared to criticize him. And now it's got all this attention, which makes me wonder,
Starting point is 00:09:11 What do I have to do? Why do you ignore me, Donald, every night I'm out here? We even wrote a book! The Donald J. Trump. Presidential Twitter Library, on sale everywhere. What do I have to do? Anyway, the fact that Trump went after LeBron James wasn't that surprising. What was surprising is who came to LeBron's defense? The First Lady Melania Trump contradicts her husband once again,
Starting point is 00:09:48 praising LeBron James for his charitable work as her husband attacks him. Her communications director issuing a statement, praising James, saying it looks like LeBron James is working to do good things on behalf of our next generation and that the first lady would be open to visiting the I promise school in Akron. Guys, guys, I'm starting to think that maybe Melania is not happy in her marriage. Because I mean this is insane, now Melania is saying she wants to go visit LeBron's school. And don't forget, don't forget, this is now the fourth time that the first lady has gone publicly
Starting point is 00:10:26 against her husband. She spoke out against kids in cages. She refused to stop watching CNN on Air Force One. And remember, she has been spotted hanging out with vegetables. So English may not be her first language, but she clearly is fluent in throwing shade. And this is what's happened. This is where thi thi thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu – thiiiiiiii. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thiol-a, too-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-s. to-s, to-o-o-o-o-o-o-a-a-a-a-s, tho-s, tho-s, tho-s, tho-s, tho-s tho-s thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi-a thi-a thi-a thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi-s thi. thi-s thi. to to thn-s to-s th-s to-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'-s'n-s'n-s. th-s th-s th-s throwing shade. And this is what's happened. This is where we are. Melania Trump has sided with LeBron. And if anything, I think Lebron should return the favor.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Because if there's anyone who can tell her how to get out of an unhappy relationship, it's him. We'll be right back. John Stewart here. Unbelievably exciting news. My new podcast, The Weekly Show, we're going to be talking about the election, economics, ingredient to bread ratio, on sandwiches. Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart, wherever you get your podcast.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Welcome back to the Daily Show. Back in May, President Trump said he was pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal for a lot of Obama's, I mean reasons. And tonight, it becomes official. At midnight tonight, the United States will reimpose sanctions on Iran months after President Trump denounced he was unilaterally pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal. The sanctions will target Iran's auto industry, steel, and aluminum manufacturing and other metals, including gold. At least a dozen global companies have pulled out of the country in anticipation of the sanctions.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Oh no, not Iran's auto industry. Now I won't be able to buy the 2019 pay can. No. Now what car can I rev up to 25 miles an hour and cruise with the windows down because they won't roll up? No, I'll set to buy a Mercedes. Now obviously, Iran and the United States are not friends, right? They beef harder than Elon Musk and everyone on Twitter. But this, this wasn't always this way. So let's talk about how the bad blood started.
Starting point is 00:12:23 In tonight's segment, what had happened was... So, how exactly did America become enemies with Iran? Well, what had happened was, back in 1951, Iran was a rising nation, starting, you know, a path to democracy, thanks to a new leader named Mohammed Musadhe. This guy, right? And it's weird seeing an Iranian leader smile, right? Yeah, because normally when you see Iranian leaders, they always have that angry.
Starting point is 00:12:53 They always have that angry. Like, like they just caught you masturbating to a picture of him being angry. Like they just caught you masturbating. But Musadicicic was their their their th th th was was th th to th to to to th was their named named named their th is their named named named their named their named, th is a th is a th is a th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th named, th named, th, thamamamamamamam, tham, tham, tham, tham, tham, thamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamamam, tham, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, named, tham, named, thi. to to to toa. toa. toa. tha. tha. thi. you masturbating to a picture of him being angry. But Mousadig was incredibly popular in Iran and for one major reason. You see, before him, Great Britain controlled Iran's oil fields for decades. And Mousadeg, he kicked the British out. Yeah. And now of course the British did not like that. Because if there's one thing that makes white people angry, it's taking back what they took from you. Hey, two wrongs don't make a right. So now, so now, Britain and Iran were feuding, and both of them turned to America for help.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Iran asked America to help protect their democracy, and Britain was like, yo, America? Do you want oil? And America was like, yeah. Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister, Mohammed Mossadek is overthrown in a coup organized by the CIA. Clearing the way for closer energy ties between Washington and Iranian monarch Mohammed Rezashaw Padlavi. Ouch. Ouch. Iran asks the US for help, and then the US overthrows them using the CIA. It's like Iran called 911, and then the cops came and shot them. Until this day, Iranian people are still mad about the US toppling its government. And I don't blame them.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Because think about how mad America is because Russia sent some Facebook posts. Now imagine Iran. And what made Iran even angrier is how easy it was for America to do it. Kermit Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt's grandson was the CIA man who plotted the overthrow of Iran's prime minister. You had a million dollars in cash to run the coup, right? That's right, and we used about $60,000 of it. God damn. America overthrew Iran's democracy for just $60,000 of it. God damn. America overthrew Iran's democracy for just $60,000. That's like the cost of an Audi sport back. Without the sunroof. So after the U.S. overthrew Iran's government,
Starting point is 00:14:57 the relationship has never been the same. In 1979, Iranians had a revolution and took Americans hostage for over a year. In the 1980s, America supported Saddam Hussein in his war against Iran. In the 2000s, Iran gave Iraqis weapons to use against Americans. And then, worst of all, the biggest insult is when America made the movie 300. Because don't forget, Iranians are Persians. And so America basically made a movie where Iranians looked like this. Huh? Look at this dude. Look at that. He looks like Mr. Clean went to the
Starting point is 00:15:28 piercing place in the mall and was just like, give me everything. Give me everything. And so that's basically why we are where we are today. So the next time someone asks you why Iran and America aren't friends, just tell them what it happened was. We'll be right back. Welcome back. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest tonight is Georgia's Democratic nominee for Governor and author of the book, Minority Leader, how to lead from the outside and make real change. Please welcome, Stacey Abrams. Welcome to the show. I did.
Starting point is 00:16:10 There. Welcome to the show. I did not sit down properly. There we go. Welcome to the show. Your story is one that has been both inspirational and meteoric. It feels like. And yet, on the ground, you have been doing so much work. Before we get into the story of how you've been getting people voting and how you are conducting
Starting point is 00:16:38 a race that many people do not believe you can win. I wanted to ask you about one thing I've noticed about you in the news, and that is, we joke we the the the the the the the the the joke about the joke about th joke about the joke about th joke about th joke about the the th joke about the tho tho the tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho to to to to to to to tho the story to to to to to be to be, to be, to be, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th.... th.. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, their, thi, their, thi, thi. thin, thi. thi. thi. thi. te. thi. te. te. te. te. te. thi. thi. thi, thi.. I wanted to ask you about one thing I've noticed about you in the news and that is we joke about on the show but people often refer to you as the first black female governor. That's the one thing they say they go she could be the first black female governor and then they go and her opponent and then they'll mention all the things that he's running on. the thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thoe. But their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. thooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooe. their their their their their their the on the fact that you would be making history and not on the fact that you would be actually doing the job? I think sometimes there is a Crayola version of policymaking that happens where they do focus on color.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Right. My mission is to talk about issues, to talk about education and to talk about why it's so critical that we create jobs for everyone that pay a good wage, to talk, access to Medicaid so poor people don't get sick in Georgia. And then we have hospitals that can take care of people when they get sick. But it's hard to get them to focus on that because I think they're so surprised some by how far I've been able to come despite what they consider both a disqualifier and a really interesting fact that fits really nicely on a thr... thuuu. thu. thu. thu. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, their, thi, their thi, thi, their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tauuuuu. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. on a cryon. Right, and it's interesting that you wrote about that in the book as well. You speak about the difficulties of being a person of color who is trying to run in a race where people make that seem like it's some sort of hindrance. People will ask you, they'll say, well, how do you plan to get out the white vote? I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, the, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, you, you, you, you, you, the white votes? I, I, I, I'll take it.
Starting point is 00:18:05 No, it's funny because they don't, like you say in the book, they don't ask it the other way. So like, what, what do you, what do you, what do you stick to when people ask you that type of question? I talk to everyone about what matters. What I tell folks is I sound the same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same as the same same same same same as the same as I thia thi as I thi as I thi as I the same same same same the same the same the same the same the same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same same in North Georgia, which is predominantly white, in midtown Atlanta, in downtown Atlanta, and in Savannah. I'd sound the exact same. I never change who I am or what I talk about.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Because I think that fundamentally, it doesn't really matter what race you are, you want a good governor who can lead. Right. And I think that's that's what I want people to see. You have been personally attacked by the President of the United States. Yes, I have. Which I feel like you would wear with a badge of honor. Trump called you the open border crime-loving opponent that the Democrats have given.
Starting point is 00:19:01 She's weak on vets, the military and the Second Amendment. I'm a terrible person by his estimation. Let me correct this. I believe in strong bipartisan federal immigration. I do not love crime. In fact, I hate crime. I am the only candidate in this race who actually passed legislation to protect our vets and our military and I know how to shoot a gun. I know how to shoot a gun. I know you don't point it at other people.
Starting point is 00:19:31 I know how to use it effectively and I know that gun safety means that some people shouldn't get to have guns because they hurt you. Right. Right. When the presidents and your opponents talk about crime-loving, they're really referring to your prison policies and the their their thii thi thol thol th and thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, I thi, I'm thi, I'm thi thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm thi, I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thin, I thin, I thin, I'm thin, I'm thin, I'm thin, I'm th th thoooooooooooooooooooooooes, I'm th toe th th toe thean, I'm the the talk about crime-loving, they're really referring to your prison policies and the ideas that you wish to put forth about prison reform. Why are those issues that you are so focused on? I talk very openly about the fact that I have a family member who has dealt with prison. He's an incredible man who deserves every opportunity
Starting point is 00:20:05 to be active and engaged in society. And when we as a community decide that you should be held accountable for your crimes, we also have to decide that you can come back and be a part of our community when you get out. I've spent the last seven years working very closely with the governor of Georgia to push criminal justice reform laws. not only transition for prisoners, but making sure we don't charge someone who's 17 as though they are 18, making sure that we decriminalize
Starting point is 00:20:30 being poor. You shouldn't go to jail because you're poor and you shouldn't stay in jail because you can't afford justice. That doesn't make sense. The conversations that people have in and around some of your ideas as they say, oh, I mean, we understand why you would say this about criminal justice reform and why you have these views on tax. One of the ideas I heard about you that was really interesting was someone asked, they said, Stacy Abrams, how can she be governor when she herself is in debt? And what was interesting is you are the person who came out and told people when you were running that you are in debt, you
Starting point is 00:21:13 told people that you have student loans. This is something most candidates would hide. So if somebody wants to vote for you and you are in debt, how do you expect them to work through those two seemingly conflicting-cliclicliclili.....s.s.s. So. So. So. Soe. So, to, to, to, their, to, their, their, their, their, to, their, to, their, their, to, to, to, their, toe, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, their, their, their, their, their, toe. I. I. I. toe. toe. toe. toe. I. toe. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, how do you expect them to work through those two seemingly conflicting ideas? So I actually dedicate a whole chapter in my book to money. Because one thing that you learn when you are in the minority is that money plays as huge a part in your success, as your intellect, as your capacity. It is an anchor that can drag you down. And I want people to understand that you want leaders who actually remember what it was
Starting point is 00:21:45 like to have to make decisions, to struggle with money, to struggle with the real choices we make every day. I have student-owned debt because I went to really good schools that cost a lot of money. I have tax, I reported my income to the IRS. I reported my income to the IRS. They never failed to know how much I owed them. I just told them I'll get to you. I'm going to pay, because I have parents who had medical needs.
Starting point is 00:22:12 I have a niece that my parents are raising. I have, I am responsible primarily for not just my household, but another one, I want a leader who knows how to make decisions when things are tough, not just someone who can make easy choices because they've never had to face challenge. I think it makes me a better candidate. When you look at the issues that are driving you in this race, one of the big things people are concerned about are the raw numbers. People are saying in order for you to win, you would have to turn out the black vote like it has never turned out before.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And in many ways, that's the reason you're sitting here today. That's the reason people are taking notice, is because you have motivated black people to register to vote. I mean, I believe that you were part of a campaign where at 1 point, 800,000 black people had not registered to vote, and I think that number has now diminished to 350,000, which is an insane jump. So, there are two things, there are two things that I would like to understand. One, why do you find, in your personal experience, so many black people don't register to vote?
Starting point is 00:23:20 And two, why do you think it's so important to get these people into it? It seems like an obvious answer, but why are you mobilizing these people in that way and how you're doing it? So when I founded the New Georgia Project in 2014 or 2013, there were 800,000 unregistered people of color, the majority of whom, 600,000 of whom were African American. But also had a large population of Latinos and a smaller population of Asian Americans who weren't registered. The problem with that is we are making choices and decisions about everyone's lives. And if you're not part of the decision making, I promise you you're still going to be affected. The really crass way I've heard it put is, look, if you're either at the table or you were on the menu. And these were hundreds of thousands of people were watching their hospitals get shut down. They're watching their children go to prison,
Starting point is 00:24:06 and they had no say. I grew up in a family that has always been a part of the civil rights movement. My parents helped register folks before it was legal. And they raised us to revere the right to vote. I'm going to win this election because I revere the right to vote and I'm going to talk to every single Georgian because I know the real important piece of this and I think why people get confused, I want every vote, but I'm going to center the votes of those who are the least likely to be asked to vote,
Starting point is 00:24:39 and that tends to be people of color predominantly African Americans.
