Will the MSB support Stephen A?

quote:

Stephen A. Smith is “moving closer” to a 2028 presidential run, according to one national political correspondent.

“Stephen A. Smith is moving closer to a 2028 campaign... spending a few days with him in recent months reminded me of spending a few days with Trump back in 2013-2014. Many laughed at the prospect of a bid. But in an age of celebrity and social media...,” posted Robert Costa, a national correspondent for @CBSSunday and the chief Washington analyst for @CBSNews.

Costa interviewed the ESPN personality for a piece that will air on CBS Sunday Morning on Feb. 15.

Smith told Costa: “I will confess to you, I’m giving strong consideration to being on that debate stage for 2027” and running for the Democratic nomination. “I’ve got this year coming up 2026, to think about it, to study, to know the issues.”

It'll be interesting to see how Gavin Newsome chooses to attack SaS.

I'm not going to count out Smith. He could be formidable in a debate setting. He'll definitely get soundbites and clips.

What's interesting is if Screamin A was announced as a candidate to run the New York Knicks, everyone would laugh their asses off and it would be totally unserious. And he's marginally more qualified for that job than the office of the president. For some reason now, we've been conditioned to view the presidency as an office that requires less serious credentials than running a basketball franchise.

As far as the pure entertainment content this could produce, I'm in. Newsome vs Stephen A could be just the insanity the Dem party needs.

And honestly, I'd probably trust Stephen A Smith at the helm 1000% more than I would Newsome.

Because he did real estate development before he did the apprentice

You can’t be serious

We hold sports figures to a much higher standard. Being unqualified in politics just means you can say you're an outsider that hasn't been bought.

As long as he will abolish ICE and restore dignity to the office I AM IN.

Absolutely not. I mean, I'd take him over Newsome or any other democrat, but no.

Sadly it seems like the natural evolution of things.
