“I read it more broadly, because we have to recognize that while Donald Trump may be the avatar, he’s not an outlier. As long as the rest of the Republican Party suborn what is happening, whether it’s Stephen Miller at the podium or a U.S Senator, they are all agreeing to the premise of Project 2025, which is, they want to hoard opportunity and legalize discrimination,” Abrams claimed.
She went on to suggest that America was founded on systemic white supremacy and sexism.
“We have spent 248 years as a nation undoing our original sins, which include slavery, silencing women, denying Native Americans their citizenship, a whole host of challenges. But what we’ve done since then, we’ve passed the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, which, by the way, you can’t rescind with an executive order. We passed the 19th Amendment, but we also passed Title 1, which focuses on poor children having access to education,” she added.
The Controversial “DEI Graduate” Remark
Abrams then took direct aim at Vance, suggesting that his public school and college experience made him a product of DEI policies.
“So if you are a vice president who graduated from high school in the Appalachian Mountains and you went to a Title 1-funded school, you are a DEI graduate,” Abrams said.
This remark ignored the reality of Vance’s upbringing, where he faced significant hardships that had nothing to do with DEI policies. Vance grew up in a household plagued by instability, attended a state school, served in the Marine Corps, and worked his way into Yale Law School without the advantages of diversity programs.
J.D. Vance’s Rise Contradicts Abrams’ Narrative
For many conservatives, Vance’s story is the embodiment of the American Dream—a testament to perseverance, hard work, and personal responsibility. DEI programs, often criticized as discriminatory in their own right, are designed to prioritize race and identity over merit. Yet, Vance’s success came despite the fact that, as a white man from a poor background, he was often overlooked by these very initiatives.
Rather than receiving special treatment, Vance had to fight against the odds, overcoming challenges that many who benefit from DEI policies have never faced. His journey stands in stark contrast to Abrams’ narrative, which attempts to frame him as a recipient of leftist-driven equity policies.

The Left’s Miscalculation on J.D. Vance
Democrats, including Abrams, are quickly realizing they misjudged Vance. His appeal as a leader stems from his ability to connect with working-class Americans who feel left behind by elite-driven policies. By attempting to label him as a DEI beneficiary, Abrams only reinforced the disconnect between progressive elites and the struggles of everyday Americans.
Vance’s story is not one of privilege but perseverance. And as he continues to rise in political influence, attacks like Abrams’ only serve to highlight how little the Left understands the voters they claim to fight for.
