Stephen A. Smith revealed the brutal truth behind why so many Democratic lawmakers avoid his show.
The host got very passionate about being rejected by “liberals,” who he says are too afraid to come on his podcast and defend their ideology, policies and actions. That is not the case with the Republican Party members, he noted, who often accept his invitations to speak.

Smith sat down with The Culture Table to discuss the “Thumbs Down” he received for his commentary from the National Association of Black Journalists. He defended his coverage and comments, accusing leftists of refusing to have a conversation with him.
“When I bring you on the show, giving you the platform, respectfully asking you questions and letting you answer, and the only people who run from me are liberals,” he told the women. “The GOP, the right, don’t run. They all accept either immediately or tentatively. It’s always the liberals, the same people who stir this shit up, scared to show up on the show.”

Yes, that’s because Democrats cannot defend most of their radical leftist ideas and policies.

SAS tripping. People don’t want to give him credibility off their name. It’s their prerogative. SAS needs to enjoy the audience he can demand & don’t bother trying to attract others who prefer to distance themselves from him.

Very few Americans want what the left is selling.
The corrupt MSM and Social Media gives them far more influence than they actually have. That’s why they needed 15,000,000 new illegals. Amnesty and the vote was their plan if they won.— Mercy (@Mercyisagooddog) September 1, 2026
That’s because the liberals are usually on the wrong side of the 95/5 issue with 5% being insane, reality suspending fraudsters. Imagine having a liberal on and asking them to define a woman and they literally can’t. Got TDS? It’s simply insane, full stop, now you know.
