Title: Screamin' A Smith
Post by: Snaggletiger on March 29, 2024, 12:24:06 PM
I am not a fan of Stephen A.  One of the main reasons is his delivery.  Every take sounds like an angry customer complaining about finding a tomato on their cheeseburger. And we all know how that can set a brother off.

You may disagree with his view, and yes, he has a huge problem with bringing race into discussions where it's clearly not an issue. But, he speaks his mind.  Right or wrong, you will know where he stands.  I did find it interesting though, that he's basically saying what every Democrat should be saying as well. Stop trying to take Trump out, and find somebody legit to run against him instead of this drooling, old man.  Article from Fox News


During an interview with entrepreneur and podcast host Patrick Bet-David, ESPN host Stephen A. Smith admitted he is "ashamed" of the Democratic Party and complained about the "lawfare" they’re waging against former President Trump.

"What’s all the lawfare about?" he asked on the "PBD Podcast" on Wednesday, complaining that Democrats can’t just beat Trump in a traditional election.

"One charge after another, you got Letitia James … You’ve got the folks in Georgia with Fani Willis and others. You’ve got, you know, the Mar-A-Lago situation. You got … I mean, we’re really, really, really going to have a trial about hush money to a former porn star? That’s what we’re doing? That’s what we’re doing now?" he asked.

Smith, a Democrat voter and vocal critic of the former president, slammed his party for not being able to take a chunk out of Trump, who is the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, despite everything his political opponents have thrown at him since his first run for office.

Marveling at that fact, he stated, "I’m like, are you kidding me? Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating that anybody should be above the law at any time. What I am saying is he’s the President of the United States, the former President of the United States. You talk to us about Russian collusion, you talk to us about a bevy of things over the years. Man is still running."

"Four indictments, 91 counts and the man gets more campaign dollars, climbing in the polls, okay?" he continued, adding, "And last time I checked, he still ain’t been in cuffs, he still ain’t been put behind bars. And he’s the presumptive GOP nominee."

"You can’t stop him. You cannot stop him," he declared to his co-hosts.

The rebukes for Democrats kept coming from Smith, who said, "And so for me, I find myself ashamed of the Democratic Party for their lack of a competitive fervor."

"You had since 2016 to come up with somebody else, and you still can’t do it? That is pathetic. It is pathetic," he said. "And there is no excuse for it whatsoever."

Grilling the party even harder, he exclaimed, "It is 2024. In eight years, you should have been able to find somebody that could compete with this man other than a soon 82-year-old incumbent."

After Smith finished his rebuke of the party, Bet-David asked him if he still wants Democrats to win in 2024. Smith replied it was a "fair" question, and admitted it’s "hard to figure out."

He’s a lifelong plantation man. He’ll never vote anything but democrat.
His recent rumblings are nothing more than a realization that Biden is everything the right said about him. But he will still vote for him.

I don't doubt that, but it's actually good to see a Dem with the platform he has, not only calling his own party out for how they're trying to oust Trump, but telling them to stop propping up that senile, old bastard, and find a viable candidate.

Amen. Vote one way or another, but have the conviction to call your party out when there is something they are demonstrably doing wrong.

Still not a "Fox" guy, right?

It's not a "hush money" trial.  It's an election interference trial.
