BREAKING NEWS – Hollywood, California – Georgia gubernatorial candidate and Democratic activist Stacey Abrams made a cameo in the last scene of the season finale of “Star Trek: Discovery” last week – portraying the president of the fictional United Earth.
In the scene, Abrams is greeted as “Madam President” after stepping off her spaceship minutes before the credits roll and agrees to rejoin an interstellar alliance called The Federation. She also speaks to the show’s main character, Capt. Michael Burnham (Sonequa Chaunté Martin-Green), telling her, “There’s a lot of work to do. Are you ready for that?” One of the producers stated that the only reason why Abrams got very little air time, is because she wanted to get political on the show and talk about Vulcan voting rights.
