In this fiery edition of Straight Shooter, Stephen A. Smith holds absolutely nothing back. Following the shocking news that LeBron James is heading to the Philadelphia 76ers, the President of the United States weighed in with some truly outrageous and divisive comments, calling LeBron a "racist."
Stephen A. breaks down exactly why these comments cross the line, why Michael Jordan will always be the GOAT in his eyes (no matter what the President says), and why he wouldn't hesitate to sit across from Donald Trump to demand answers about the real issues facing this country—from international conflicts to the economy.
Plus, he's got a stern warning for the Democratic party: he isn't done with them, either!
Chapters:
0:00 - "Our President is Trifling": Stephen A. addresses the ridiculous attacks on LeBron James.
1:15 - LeBron to the 76ers: Reacting to the massive NBA news and how the White House responded.
2:30 - The Audio Clip: Listening to the President's controversial answer on the MJ vs. LeBron debate.
3:45 - The GOAT Debate: Why Michael Jordan is undeniably the greatest (and why the President's "litmus test" is absurd).
5:10 - Calling Out the Commander-in-Chief: Why Stephen A. would sit across from Trump in a heartbeat to ask the real hard-hitting questions.
7:20 - A Warning to the Democrats: Why the left shouldn't be celebrating just yet.
