*Stephen A. Smith was a guest on SiriusXM host Karen Hunter’s podcast (“Karen Hunter Is Awesome!”), where he refuted claims that he might run for president.
“You know, I’m laughing like, are y’all serious? You really serious? And then I start joking around, ‘I’m Stephen A. Smith, and I approve this message,’ you know? ‘Oh God bless you. And God bless the United States.’ It’s fun, It’s hilarious to me. It really, really is,” Smith told Hunter.
Hunter responded, “Where we are as a nation right now is not funny,” to which Smith agreed.
STEPHEN A. SMITH: Right. right.

KAREN HUNTER: And I feel like we’re at the precipice of a severe; we probably are broken already and don’t know it. And I don’t know if it could be put back together, but this is why, you know, I’m different ’cause I can’t play a game when so many lives are impacted. I’m fine. I’m gonna be fine. You know, I’m always gonna be fine. It’s the way I’m wired, and fortunately, I come from fine. So, you know, we, but I look around, and it pains me to see the amount of pain that folk, because of misinformation and disinformation, they didn’t even advocate for themselves. And this wasn’t about Democrats and Republicans at this point. You got a lot to say about Democrats, but we’re the people.
We’re the party. So if the Democrats are failing, that’s you failing. If the Republicans aren’t representing, if they’re representing Nazis and racists, that’s your fault. If you call yourself a Republican and that doesn’t line up, would you do something about it?
STEPHEN A. SMITH: Right.
KAREN HUNTER: So I’m like super frustrated that we don’t even have the political maturity to have a conversation about resources because that’s what politicians are. They deliver resources for the people at the local, state, and federal levels. Are we sending people who are delivering resources? Are we doing a popularity contest? And once your name starts getting circulated, here we go again. Yeah, you say win. I’m like, why? Why are you even in the conversation?
STEPHEN A. SMITH: First of all, I didn’t put myself there. I didn’t ask for that. Don’t do that to me.
OK, so here’s the bottom line. Stephen A. Smith has no presidential plans. Check out the clip via the YouTube player at the top of the page.
