Stephen A. Smith delivers a blunt message aimed directly at Jasmine Crockett.“I hope Jasmine Crockett is listening to this.”By the end, Smith was visibly perplexed, shrugging his shoulders as to why Crockett couldn’t figure this out.“When you go on national television and… you’re being all disrespectful [to the president], as a representative in this country, do you believe the citizens of Texas sent you there to do that?” Smith asked.“They expect you to go to Capitol Hill and figure out a way to maneuver yourself through that terrain to work in a fashion that’s going to facilitate getting things done on behalf of your constituents.”“That’s your job! That’s your job!” Smith emphasized twice.“Excuse my language on SiriusXM, but it ain’t your job to say, ‘He ain’t sh*t.’ He ain’t worth a damn.’ That’s not your job! Anybody could do that.”Smith then gave Crockett a blunt lesson in decency, explaining that showing Trump some respect is the only way to actually get things done.“He’s a dealmaker. And if you figure out a way to make him look good… He’ll reciprocate,” Smith explained.“If you know that, why can’t you figure it out? Is that hard?” he asked, shrugging his shoulders.https://x.com/vigilantfox/status/1976309424504365458?s=12
