Stacey Abrams lands cringe cameo as president of the ENTIRE planet Earth on ‘Star Trek’
March 17, 2022 | Robert Jonathan

Failed 2018 gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams has received a promotion: She is now president of “United Earth.”

The Democrat ascended to that exalted position in a cringe cameo role on the season four finale of “Star Trek: Discovery” in the closing scene.

Showrunner Michelle Paradise characterized Abrams’ appearance in the Paramount+ series as “awesome” but couldn’t remember who specifically on the staff came up with the casting choice. Series creator Alex Kurtzman apparently gave the idea the green light immediately, however.

“And she was so kind. And we got on Zoom with her, and we pitched her where we were for the season and who this character was and what this character would represent. And asked if she would be a part of this with us. Honestly, I can’t think of anyone better to represent the president of Earth in all of that,” Paradise told IndieWire.

Abrams, who is said to be a big Star Trek franchise fan, purportedly collaborated on her few lines of dialogue (which are kind of global-ish) in the script as well as the costuming.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Bad casting.  She is more of a Klingon-Borg hybrid.

I have a feeling she'd exceed any of the weight restrictions on spacecraft.

She couldn't fly on any spaceship because the warp drive would get stuck in her gravity well.
