ESPN sports commentator Stephen Smith admitted that he regrets voting for Kamala Harris during the 2024 presidential election.
Speaking to Fox News host Mark Levin, Smith said, “I voted Democrat, and I got to tell you something right now: I don’t like the fact that I did. I don’t like what I’m seeing.”
“I don’t want to hear about, ‘Oh we’re about the law. Nobody’s above the law. Nobody’s above the law.’ But then you go out, and you pardon your son, and you try to blame everybody else for it,” he said, criticizing President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son, Hunter.
“I don’t want to hear about defund the police. I don’t want to hear about, you know what? There should be open borders. I don’t want to hear this stuff. And I don’t think most of the American people want to hear that,” he added.
Smith acknowledged that he may “possibly” be open to voting for Republicans moving forward.
“What concerned me about Donald Trump, and the reason I voted against him and voted for Kamala Harris, was because I felt that he would be divisive. That he would create chaos because he demands such a level of loyalty and fealty to him,” Smith explained. “And that would take priority over governing our nation. That was my concern.”
“It can’t be just about fealty to him and loyalty to him. It has to be about getting the job done on behalf of what’s in the best interests of the American people as opposed to yourself, and not engaging in the kind of juvenile tendencies, tweeting all the time, and going after people who are really…irrelevant in the grand scheme of things,” he said.
“You do things like that, and you show that you’re the adult in the room; I don’t think anybody could dismiss Donald Trump at this particular moment in time.”
