Stephen A. Smith says he desires to run for president of america, however there’s one huge roadblock … MONEY!
TMZ Sports activities caught up with the ESPN star, who beforehand instructed us he had no real interest in operating, throughout Kenny Smith‘s The FlyHouse All-Star Bash in Los Angeles, who instructed us straight up, “The country sucks.”
“I think the country is devoid of leadership, the kind of leadership we have, we don’t need. The kind of leadership we should be getting, nobody is stepping up and doing. I don’t desire to be a politician, but in the same breath, the opportunity to go on a debate stage and call out these politicians for the things that they’ve done to damage this country is something that very much appeals to me,” SAS instructed us matter-of-factly.
A robust assertion … so, we requested the 58-year-old what it might take for him to really run, and Smith mentioned this … “My money has to be tight.”
“My quality of life needs to be straight, you know? From my understanding, that can’t happen because I’d have to give it up in order to run.”
FYI, Smith reportedly signed a 5-year, $100 million take care of ESPN final yr.
In the end, Stephen A. says he’d love the chance to “debate these politicians that I think have divided all of us and have really screwed up this country.”
“That’s what I really, really want to do, more so than anything else. But I’m not going to lie and act like it wouldn’t be attractive if I knew I could win the presidency, that I wouldn’t be tempted, because I know I would.”
Do not anticipate a remaining choice to come back anytime quickly. SAS says nothing “definitive” is coming till 2027.
Till then, we wait.
