The ESPN sports commentator Stephen A. Smith has said he regrets voting for Kamala Harris.
In an interview with Fox News host Mark Levin, Smith said that he had grown disillusioned with the Democratic Party.
“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,” Smith said.
However, Smith said that while he has never voted for a Republican candidate before, he had now become “open-minded” to the idea.
He explained:
I’m down for it. I’m open-minded enough to make sure that they entertain that from a policy perspective. That’s what I want for the American people. That’s what I want for this nation.
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. 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.
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.

Sounds like Stephen A. Smith has some regrets! At least he’s finally awake and admitting this… “The American people aren’t falling for it any longer. I voted Democrat, and I have to tell you something right now: I don’t like the fact that I did…”

While Smith has always voted Democrat, he has also shown willingness to challenge leftist narratives.
Earlier this month, he slammed Joe Biden over his decision to pardon his son Hunter on gun charges and tax-related crimes.
“It wasn’t his decision. It wasn’t him pardoning his son,” he said in an interview with NewsNation host Chris Cuomo.
“It was the weak, pathetic explanation that he gave, which has most critics just shaking their heads and raising their eyebrows and saying, What nerve you have?”
