ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith Mocks Idea Of Biden As Dems’ ‘Best Candidate’ For 2024 | Eastern North Carolina Now

    ESPN's Stephen A. Smith doubled down on viral comments he made slamming Democrats for backing President Joe Biden as the party's "best candidate" for 2024.

    During the sports commentator's appearance on Fox News's "Hannity" on Tuesday, Smith said he's "certainly not a liberal" but a registered independent. Smith said he preferred former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who recently entered the race for the 2024 GOP nomination, over Biden or any other Democrat running.

    "I'd vote for him [Christie] before I'd vote for any of the Democratic candidates that I've seen," Smith said, before going on to criticize Biden.

    "I'm looking at him and I don't like what I see," he added. "I'm not impressed with what I see, and I've been very concerned with what I've seen, and the fact that he's going to be 82 years of age at election time, if he were to win the election, then he'd be in the White House until he's 86 years old."

    "I think in the year 2023 it is utterly embarrassing that the liberal side has him as their best candidate," Smith continued. "What does it say about you when that is the best candidate that you can give the Left? That is ridiculous!"

    The ESPN host said it was less of a slam on Biden and more an "indictment against the Democratic Party." The comments were similar to those Smith made during a recent episode of "The Stephen A. Smith Show" podcast that ended up going viral.

    "Without trying to engage in any kind of ageism at all, because I don't believe in it," Smith said. "There does come a point in time where there are certain jobs you don't need. It's not that you don't need to be working, it's not that you don't need to be living your life, it's not that you don't need to be living a very vibrant lifestyle or anything like that, but there are responsibilities that are far, far, far more extensive than a typical 9 to 5 that somebody in their 80s may not need to be doing. I think the presidency is one of 'em."

Now that the public is allowed to know the truth regarding the Hunter Biden Laptop Scandal, after more that 2 1/2 years of deception by the corrupt Corporate Media Kabal, propropagandidats all, and the discredited Deep State, we have NOW learned that the infamous laptop is far less about the Biden Boy's fetish for pornography, narcotics and Russian whores, and far more about Hunter's pivotal role in the Biden Crime Syndicate's selling of deep access to our foreign adversaries, and to what extent it has compromised our national security: What is your opinion about this possible coordinated Treason?

  It is imperative that we know the truth of what may be the greatest scandal in our Republic's history, and all aforementioned parties prosecuted for their crimes against the People.

  Currently, our Two Tiered Justice System is constructed to protect all Democratic Socialists, their corrupt "Journalist" spokes-sheople, and their Deep State enablers ... so why bother.

  It is Donald Trump's fault.

  How can we be assured that the "Laptop" is real? Would NOT our standard journalists have investigated this issue thoroughly nearly 3 years ago if it was real?

In the face of a known scandal finally being revealed by the corrupt Legacy Media regarding Joe Biden, his Mishandling of Classified Documents and his long history of Influence Peddling to our Foreign Adversaries for Personal and Familial Profit: What do you believe the outcome will be in America's Leftist practice of a Two Tiered Justice System?

  Nothing will happen since the Democratic Socialist Left is corrupt to the core, and their non patriot ambitions are only the control of power.

  Justice WILL be served, but NOT without a tremendous fight by those willing to save the Republic.

  Why can't everyone else understand that the Left is special because we care so much for our own, especially the well being of the president and his family, especially Hunter.

  What difference does it make; I am a product of a failed public education system.

Among the many other lackluster performance standards by the Biden Administration - the most recent, allowing the Chinese Spy Balloon unfettered access to the skies above this Sovereign Republic - Joe Biden's foreign policy is considered by most true experts to be mediocre to abysmal at best. If one were to give a fair assessment of the quality of this apex duty of this Executive Branch: What would be your opinion of the Biden Administration's Foreign Policy initiatives and, or obvious faux pas?

  President Biden is a Foreign Policy expert of consummate skill just like his brother, Jim, and his son, Hunter.

  America's First Idiot President is corruptly committed to making the World far less safe, while surrendering OUR United States of America's sovereignty whenever, wherever possible.

  Mr. Biden is MY President because I pay close attention to only what rewards me, thus demanding as little sacrifice as is my nature to offer, or shrug.
