Obviously, the focus of this discussion was politics, sports and then the midst of this venni diagram. Therefore, it was appropriate to start with a question about whether the sport was more political or whether the media and people like Clay and Smith did so.

“I think we’re doing it to some extent, Smith said. He continued: “This does not mean that there is no politics. There is politics. There is politics in everything and we understand it.”

He continued to discuss how the athletes in the previous generations were forced to speak because of the pressure of their communities, and then an idea that he touched again in the discussion, even in a similar way, said that there was a community pressure that forced him to become more political after the death of Trayvon Martin.

After mentioning the importance of such civilian speeches, Travis mentioned how the sport was a “unique one”.

“I am my old school in some respects. I think Michael Jordan was right. “Unfortunately, I watched a victor of my volunteers of Tennessee University Georgia Bulldogs. This weekend is a great game, but every time I am in an arena, you don’t always think of the gender identity in a stadium, when you take root for the home team or sit with you.

After some discussions about the transformation of the NBA into politics and how it affected its popularity, the speech turned into fluctuation in black men who voted for President Donald Trump and 21% of the 2024 presidential elections voted.

“I think men strengthened the Democratic Party.” He said. “And if you want my big picture view, most of the struggles we see in life are not allowed to be men and men are not allowed. I have three sons I have raised. I always hear from them, ‘toxic masculinity’.

Smith acknowledged that he didn’t think it was wrong, but he joked that it was “far from the right”. He offered another statement.

“Black men are like most men; affordable price, economy. Did you understand?” Smith said. “I mean, ‘How much money will you put in my pocket? How much will I pay for taxes? How can I make and protect my family?’ You want security on the streets.

Talking about security on the streets, the debate also talked about the president’s plan to do the same thing in Washington, the use of national guards to reduce the crime in DC, and Memphis, Tennessee.

Travis praised the President for efforts to clean the capital of the country.

“Politicians often act like black violence and no city violence,” he said. “Trump is actually trying to address it.”

As for Smith, he questioned the constitutional of sending to national guards other than Washington DC, but said he didn’t care that Trump did not decide to send troops to Chicago.

He said, “I don’t curse what he said in the city of Chicago.” “I have no problem with sending the national guards. It was a problem before Obama was a problem before I started to work. As a young senator. As a president, there was a problem that he had been on duty for eight years.

Conversely, Smith, Baltimore and St. He argued that other cities with known crime problems such as Louis should not be treated as national guards. He said that there were signs of statistical recovery in the case of a crime.

One of the last issues was about Stephen A. Smith’s long -term political requests, including a possible 2028 run for the president.

Although Smith said that life is good these days, he spoke why he stopped closing the door. He’s running for the office.

“I don’t have a desire to be a politician,” he said. “Life is really good. And I don’t really want to compromise it, but I don’t know what the jobs in this country will be in a few years, including my priests, including people in the business world.

While questioning his ability to collect funds, Smith said he had a full belief that his ideas could handle the job.

“But if I don’t have to worry about all this, and that was just my ideas and my positions against yours, I think I will win a democratic candidacy,” he said, before adding the opportunity to enter a stage of discussion with politicians.

Later, Clay was asked if he would run against Stephen A. He was asked if he entered the race, but he said that there was something big that the two had agreed on.

“I think what Steven A takes is that we’re tired of professional politicians, Clay Clay said before talking about how many politicians are not as clever and brave as they think, and instead of learning that” morons and cowards “he was disappointed.

So will he run?

Clay said, “If Stephen runs, I’ll run and A …” he said.

As you expected, it was the last issue that the two did not have the same agreement.

“No, he wouldn’t, Smith said.
