“We’ve had a week, two weeks, three weeks and a day since Joe Biden he stepped aside. The only damn place we’ve seen My life is beautiful is at the pep rallies. What’s going on? Somebody has to say something and it can’t just be conservatives. Right is right.”
This is Stephen A. SmithThe world’s most popular sports media personality dove headlong into the 2024 presidential election, asking a question that has been echoed by many conservatives since Biden dropped out in July: Why no live interviews?
“I’m talking to my sister. Come on now. You’re running for president of the United States of America. You have my vote. You’re running for president of the United States of America. Why are you hiding? And I mean hiding in plain sight. Someone’s got to say it. Someone’s got to say it,” SAS said this week on his popular podcast (full episode Here).
I almost NEVER agree with Steven A. Smith!
But it was a good thing for him to have denounced Kamala’s refusal to answer questions, and the complicit media that interfered on her behalf…photo.twitter.com/1ZPH1qFlHk

Smith continued… “Now, you can’t run for president of the United States. Not even a press conference. Not even a single one-on-one interview where someone can question you about the questions we ask you. It’s not right. It’s not right.”
Of course, President Biden withdrawn of the July 21 race… and immediately threw his support behind his running mate, Harris.
Since then, Kamala, who has risen to the top in the polls, has swept through swing states, but has not sat down for interviews anymore… and the criticism has begun to mount.
Stephen A. says it is justified.
“If you’re a conservative and you’re out there criticizing her for this, ridiculing her for this, trying to torment her for this or whatever, you’re perfectly within your rights to do so. All you anti-conservatives out there, shut the fuck up! That’s a valid point.”
Smith continued… “It’s not valid to bring up her black race or her Indian heritage and try to point the finger at that nature. That’s nonsense. But asking her about her resume because it’s tied to Biden’s resume is definitely appropriate, especially when you were bragging about the resume!”
CNN: “Would it hurt you to hold a press conference?”
KAMALA SPOX: “You saw the way they went through the swing states.”
CNN: “A campaign rally is not a press conference. You’re the vice president. You know how to handle questions.”

In recent days, the Harris campaign has been asked why she has not been available to the media… a spokesperson responded that Kamala has spoken directly to voters at rallies, promising that they would “do an interview here before the end of the month.”
