Ya know, other than some half-baked actor or singer, I doubt there is anyone considered less credible when it comes to the truly important issues of the day than someone known as a sportscaster. I mean, seriously, what’s the point in listening to someone whose job you could likely teach a monkey to do? So just what is it about one who has perhaps demonstrated a certain level of skill level when it comes to providing us all manner of useless statistics about ‘sports,’ that has convinced one that he is in any way qualified to comment on issues that are far more important than the outcome of some silly sporting event or the performance of its participants?
So, I’m sure that anyone who is even marginally
informed is aware that’s President Trump’s plan regarding taking control of
Gaza has met with a certain amount of skepticism. And it was earlier this week
that, for whatever reason, ESPN resident loudmouth Stephen A. Smith took time
away from Super Bowl week, and a flurry of NBA trade activity, to address the
president’s announced, undefined, and not yet fully detailed vision for U.S.
involvement in Gaza. However, despite jam-packed sports week and the limited
knowledge of the president’s intentions, Smith blasted the idea on Wednesday’s
edition of the Stephen A. Smith Show as “utterly ridiculous."
Smith said, “He sounded like he was looking to build
Trump casinos or Trump hotels or whatever the hell else he’s trying to come up
with.” And this dolt went on to say, “It was utterly ridiculous and I’m going
to say that right now, plain and simple.” Smith acknowledged that Middle East
policy isn’t his “lane” but he still managed to come to the conclusion that
President Trump’s statement somehow warranted his ‘expert’ analysis. He said, “But
when I saw this president speak last night as if he was in the process of
facilitating a business deal, that is where my antennas went up, and I became
incredibly alarmed.” And he added, “You have no business doing that."
He said, “Do you understand how the Gaza Strip has
been ravaged? Do you understand what that area of this world looks like right
now in the aftermath of Hamas invading Israel, killing hundreds of people — if
not over a thousand — along with other things they are they are alleged to have
done? [Do] you have any idea? Have you seen the footage? Have you seen the
wreckage? It’s been reduced to rubble. It’s [uninhabitable] right now. And I
get that part, but to go out there and to say that they should just leave, that
doesn’t even begin to say irresponsible.” Actually, what would be irresponsible
would be to continue doing those things that clearly haven’t worked.
But if Smith has an alternative, perhaps he should speak
up. Otherwise, he needs to take a seat and let the adults figure it out. And why
is it, all of a sudden, that we should care what a guy running a jock show
thinks? Smith doesn’t know all that much about sports, and he certainly knows
nothing about current events. He’s merely an entertainer; that is, if you’re
entertained by lots of loud, obnoxious talk about the trivialities of sports
where one host tries to one-up the other hosts. Clearly the guy has both a
sizable ego and an overinflated sense of importance. Frankly. I’m not sure why
it is that anyone with a brain would waste a second of life listening to him.
As for the issue of Gaza, which Smith knows nothing
about, Gaza belongs to Israel, so Israel is free to do whatever it wants to do with
it, including turning over stewardship to the U.S. Israel only temporarily gave
Gaza to the Arabs, but the Arab Gazans turned the land over to the terrorist
group Hamas which went on to prove that a two-state solution with the Arabs is virtually
impossible because the only thing they know how to do is destroy, not to create
or build. For the builders, you have to look to intelligent, knowledgeable,
compassionate, and strong leadership of those like President Trump. It’s a
brilliant plan by a master planner, builder, and leader.
And while I agree that Smith might be able to
influence more than a few of those on the left, most certainly it’s not because
he possesses some superior intellect. Logic and reason are traits of superior
intellect and it’s those like those boob that are totally bereft of logic and
reason. He continues to portray Blacks as victims. And he has a tendency to add
in a certain amount of hate/racism just to keep Black folks listening and
nodding in agreement, but there’s no needle movement. He’s just looking to
angle himself into a political issue to elevate his political aspirations. At
the end of the day, he’s just another Democrat trying to divide people based on
race.
All we’re seeing from Smith is yet another typical
leftist knee-jerk reaction. He would be better served by simply keeping quiet. Actually,
President Trump has proposed a very out-of-the-box solution. It almost
certainly will not come to pass, but it has gotten people talking, which is
always the first step in finding a solution. And leftists, apparently all the
way down to sportscasters, are shell-shocked. They’ve never seen decisive,
merit-based, principle-driven leadership in action before. President Trump’s
proposal is the by far the best one to date. He’s trying to give them a place
to live. Democrats would rather they stay where they are in the squalid ruins
of cities.
Obviously, Smith, who is nothing more than a
self-absorbed two-bit little race hustler, took the bait. He also needs to stay
in his lane because he has no clue what he’s talking about. Apparently Smith has
some grand delusion that people may actually want to hear his opinion. In
reality, very few give a rat’s ass about what this guy thinks about Gaza, or
anything else! He is just another big mouth with opinions, period. I’m pretty
sure that old Smitty likely has some pretty serious political aspirations and
may even see himself as president someday. God forbid. But honestly, why would
anyone in their right mind care what he thinks?
Smith has exactly zero alternative solutions for
Gaza, he’s simply shooting off his mouth. We have seen for decades now leaving
Palestinians and Hamas in Gaza to build weapons and secret tunnels hasn’t
worked. Just as we have also seen for decades absolutely no one offering up any
real solutions to the situation that would have any chance of working. Nothing!
Gaza has simply festered and festered. So, maybe instead of opening his mouth
to call the idea ridiculous, he should come up with an alternative idea and
explain how it is better. Because complaining about someone else’s idea without
one of your own is just pointless, boring, complaining.
Smith has a single digit IQ, no one cares what he
thinks. And does he even want peace in the Middle East. President Trump’s plan
stands in stark contrast to every other proposal that has been made in the last
60 years of failure in the Middle East. It would force the other countries in
the region to take responsibility for fixing the problem that they have plagued
that part of the world with. The U.S. would simply push the countries in line
with the problem to bring an end to hostilities and permanently fix the problem
through social, economic changes and getting rid of Hamas. President Trump has
not committed troops or American tax dollars to fix anything in Gaza.
And finally, morons like
Smith fall for it every time. President Trump says something outlandish; everyone
has a hissy, and then he negotiates down to what he really wants. Clearly, Smith
has no clue what he’s talking about! No one has said anything about Trump
Hotels and Trump Casinos. President Trump has also made the offer to level and
remove debris and ordinance and develop. Who else do you know that have volunteered
to do the same thing? President Trump offers peace and stability and jobs and a
higher standard of life. But because it’s President Trump’s idea it’s rejected.
Leftists are not in charge and the left doesn’t have intelligent, common ideas.
