Andrew, I have watched a few interviews with Stephen A Smith. The Bill Mahar interview too! He's an intriguing prospect. The progressives will hate him. The moderate Dems will think he's a a "closet" Republican. And the GOP will think that he's a "closet" Democrat. LOL! He's well liked by a lot of people, but raising money to run will be a big issue.

Stephen A. Smith called out the glaring double standard in how ICE is portrayed depending on who is president.

While Smith has been a Democrat for much of his life, he has admitted in 2025 that he might not be as ideologically rigid as some think. He acknowledged voting for Kamala Harris in 2024 but later questioned that decision, suggesting he could be more centrist or even switch parties if he ran for office The Spun. He has also said he wants to have a “profound impact” on the 2028 White House race, even if not running himself The Hill.

“I would be running as a Democrat, because I think the Democratic Party is in shambles right now, because I think it’s leaned too far left,” he said. “And I think that it needs to come a bit closer to the center, so we can come across as a bit more sensible.”

I agree with Smith. I think some Dems are moving way to left. The "Clinton" Democrats may actually be in the minority at the mid-terms. Maybe not the "Dixiecrats" in the south. But in the cities of the notheast and the far west, the progressive have a tight hold on the youth and disenfranchised voters.

“I don’t want to see less police officers. I want to see more police officers. I heard [New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani] talk about mental health experts in the subway system. I don’t care about that. I want cops in the subways in New York City...that’s what I want. I don’t want to hear about no damn mental health experts in subways.” (Straight Shooter With Stephen A., 2025)
