That's what I'm doing. I'm voting for Harris, not because she is Black. I don't consider her to be Black. I believe my future will be better in her hands as opposed to Trump's.
Because Trump was president for 4 years and America and the world was a much safer place and much more prosperous place. No body voted for Kam as la to be the Democratic candidate.

@@rrsp60 Imo it is indeed hypocrisy because what Obama did is 100% in line with the Democrats' general messaging. So, to tell Obama off but at the same time still voting for the same scam is not consistent.

Not voting for a guy who says if you don't vote for me, you ain't black, and definitely not voting for Trump for plenty of reasons, including Julian Assange, Net Neutrality, William Barr...

I realize that our system is far from perfect and that we need change moving forward, we need unity. But please don't waste a vote and risk not being able to speak your truth moving forward. Moving the needle forward even if only an inch, is better than not moving it all 🙏🏼 I won't tell you who to vote for, I just want your vote to move that needle ❤ God bless you
You said ALL OF THAT to end with "I'm still voting for Kamala". SMH. You refuse to see what the Democratic Party has done the 16 years since President Obama....more for LGBTQ, Immigrants & Funding Foreign Wars then for the American People.
I’m sick and tired of getting treating like this as a black man. And then to have another black man talk down like this and pandering. Then you have black women jumping on black men as well when we did nothing but protect them. I’m done with the democrats. I had one eye opened before, now both are open. No more being a slave to the democrated party
I'm glad you've woken up from the matrix but I would advise you not to make the same mistake with the other party. Although I think Trump is better it's good not to be a slave to any party but to remain independent and to think for yourself.

Get out your feelings... that's not at all what he said and wake up if you don't know that there are thousands out there that it actually applies to... You could be one of them, which would explain your sensitivity to the subject (just saying)...
I don't think black men should have to explain themselves for why they won't vote for someone who has no clue what they're going to do in office and never has an answer every time they ask her.
THAN MABE YOU THINK LIFE WILL BE BETTER IF TRAMP WINS? YOU KNOW A LOT OF OUR BROTHERS DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT VOTING, AND YOU KNOW THE POLLS ARE VERY LOW ON BLACK MEN VOTING, THAT IS WHY OBAMA MADE HIS STATEMENT ABOUT THE BROTHERS VOTING, HE WAS ON THE MONEY, HE WAS RIGHT.
They are WELL PAID puppets! I paused the video at 1:47 minutes to read the comments and I found yours, thanks for the heads up; I cannot stand double speak. It just screams beta to me.
Nah this rant is not hypocritical it’s him pointing out that we “as black men” have the right to vote for who we want for whatever reason we have without being made to feel guilty about our choice. It appears that, like when Biden said “if we don’t vote dem we aren’t black,” Obama seemingly stating that black men not voting for Kamala is misogynistic… in short he can vote for whoever he wants guilt free as can you and the rest of us. Stay up ✌🏾
Before this election cycle I want to see Trump and Smith having a conversation. Smith admits to being friends with one of the most prominent Conservative pundits and has been on Mark Levine's radio show many times.
Obama pissed off A LOT of black men with those comments, so much to the point that I've never seen so many black men being outspoken at the same time compared to what I saw a couple nights a go on Twitter with plenty of them directly responding to Obama's comments.
THEY SHOULD GET PISS OFF AND VOTE, HE IS RIGHT YOU KNOW A LOT OF BROTHERS DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT VOTING, THAT IS THE FACTS OF LIFE, THE POLLS A LOW ON BLACK MEN VOTING, LOOK IT AND YOU'LL SEE WHY OBAMA SPOKE ON IT, YOURS TRULY.
As a black woman, I'm insulted Obama spoke to black men in this manner. I refuse to vote for Kamala regardless of her race. It's her policies, which so far, she hasn't explained in detail. What little I have heard from her, she's not here to uplift the black race. What infuriates me is a whole lot of black women are voting for her because she's a woman and claims to be black.
@@zemorakeller6725 Well, what else is there to know? It's easy to see what her policies are. She was in total agreement with Biden on everything HE proposed. HIS policies are HER policies! Period! She clarified on THE VIEW, when asked if there was anything she'd have changed had she to do it over again. Out of her own mouth kamala said "NOT a THING comes to mind that needs changing. She was fully involved with EVERYTHING BIDEN stood for". Wide open borders, sex change operations for jailed inmates, boys playing as girls in girls' sports, etc, etc!
We as Black mens don't care about what Obama thinks are say. He can go back to his rich life. He is not Black to say a thing like that. Obama go away asap
They think somehow "shaming tactics" will work on black men? If anything these comments from Obama & others will cause MORE men to not vote for Harris!

I'm just gonna say this. One of Trump's new tax policies is no taxes on OVERTIME PAY, and i think thats a policy that I can appreciate because i work a lot of fucking overtime. I mean alot.

Wow 😮 I didn’t think you would take this position Stephen A. Smith…I am shocked. I tuned in expecting to hear a different position. Thank you for not coming against us black men.
I don’t know why you thought that. He has to build up his followers and TRY to go viral. He is misquoting President Obama. Obama said that he knew “some of” the issue was what he said. And of course it’s unacceptable to vote for Trump if you know anything about his history of racism, his record, his inability to be trusted, his failures as president and asa businessman, his lack of fitness for office and his Cultic politics and following.

@@ameerparker248you’re right but there will never be an even playing field, our system is setup to always have division and one side having a leg up over the other. Just my opinion and observation.
To see how things are changing and how the previous administration did little to nothing for our side and crashed the economy on his first term, I would agree with what the ex president statement because at the end of the day, your record says a lot.
Economy was best it has ever been 2016-2019 … no president has ever faced anything like COVID … to say the economy crashing was Trump’s fault is a lie. He listened to Fauci and all the “scientists” when they demanded the country shut down. But he created operation warp speed, then came the vaccine and when Biden took over things were opening back up. And then when Biden’s policies took over, prices skyrocketed. Plz get your timeline right.
so the Biden-Harris administration is not responsible at all for anything wrong with the economy or the state of America right now? its just all Trumps fault lol? Delusional my guy! What administration has ever done anything for our side? what has the Biden Harris administration done for us?
@@MichelleWalkerLilSis did he inherit a good economy? Yes. But he KEPT IT THAT WAY! He maintained the Border and kept it closed, which kept illegal immigration manageable, He kept the Peace in the Middle East with the Abraham Accords, Ended the War in Afghanistan and started the withdrawal process, added 6 Million jobs to the economy, Black unemployment was at its lowest it had been at that point, Beefed up our Military, made the other members of NATO pay their fair share to the organization.... it'd be disingenuous to say he didn't do ANYTHING positive for this country
Trump has done more for the black community in his lifetime than Biden and Kamala have combined, and less harm in all their lifetimes. BUT LETS VOTE DEMOCRAT BECAUSE IF YOU DONT, “you ain’t black”🙄
The moment you notice a vote isn't based on electing a leader. It's based on the conditioning of the minds in society. Hard to pass laws that will have rebuttal, the system is gauged to see what they can get away with. The polls show where people are at mentally.

Imagine a guy who did nothing for the black community during his term, now coming back to call black men misogynistic because they dont want to Vote for his Indian friend.
Exactly!!!
F*cking facts.
Thank you. INDIAN

Stephen A Smith
Your courage is simply amazing
Literally mouth open from being stunned at your courage.
I would vote for YOU and I’m a die hard Republican
Honestly WHERE do you get the courage to say what you think and not worry about being canceled 😮
They trying to make black men the scapegoat when she loses , 🤦🏾♂️
And it will backfire on them.
🤔🎯💯
I'm ok with that. We've carried far heavier burdens. Also, if they blame us for the loss it means they need us to win and we can leverage our votes for the policies that our community needs.
All the men I know are voting for trump
@804Casey I am too! I'm not Black, but I want better for the Black community and I'm sick and tired of seeing the Democrats take advantage of them.
After all of that, dude still said he's voting for Kamala. Very, very sad. 😢
Because he thinks she's Black, certainly not on her policy agenda or history of locking up black men and other extra bs. Come on Stephen, we Libras are balanced and intelligent. Make me want to continue to high 5 your analyses.
He’s saying that so he doesn’t get censored
He works for Disney, he pretty much has no choice

He only has one vote bro.

Thank you for speaking on this..... imo Dems have been ignoring us black men for years because they feel we are gonna vote for them regardless
Why they ain’t pressuring the Indians to vote for her 😭😭😭
Because the Democratic party know how to easily finesse Black men.

Sounds like you’re voting for trump
My favorite Take from Stephen A ALL TIMMEEEEE💯💯💯💯💯💯
I'm surprised that this video was even allowed to be aired. I'm guessing it's because he said at the end he was voting for Kamala..... Which makes no sense at all.
He's secretly voting for trump
OBAMA WORKED OUT OKAY DURING HIS PRESIDENCY BUT LIED ABOUT HIS BELIEFS IN THE GOD OF THE BIBLE. OBAMA FAILED AND WE TOTALLY REJECT HIM AND HIS SICKNESS!
Because an ideology is just like a large cult. Breaking these chains of media brainwash, social pressuring, shaming and cancelling is not easy. And just as a cult, beneath the surface it's toxic as hell. Stop to let these ultra lefts shame you into doing their nonsense bidding and finally start to make your own decisions again!
He's not telling black men whom they should vote for. It's just his reaction to Obama bullying black men that they should vote for Kamala because he said so. I don't see any hypocrisy.
@@rrsp60 Imo it is indeed hypocrisy because what Obama did is 100% in line with the Democrats' general messaging. So, to tell Obama off but at the same time still voting for the same scam is not consistent.
I am independent and a black woman and do not support Kamala nor Trump. I don’t say anything because my right to exercise this right will nail me to a proverbial cross. I vote according to my conscience, not a party nor a person’s color but based on the individual’s record.
Thank you!💯💯💯
Yep, independent all day. I have been voting independent for 20 years. Not voting for a guy who says if you don't vote for me, you ain't black, and definitely not voting for Trump for plenty of reasons, including Julian Assange, Net Neutrality, William Barr... I could go on and on. I look at what a person says and does and I vote accordingly.
And that would Donald J Trump!😂
I would encourage you to vote for who will return your right to speak your truth again 🙏🏼 and make your vote count! I realize that our system is far from perfect and that we need change moving forward, we need unity. But please don't waste a vote and risk not being able to speak your truth moving forward. Moving the needle forward even if only an inch, is better than not moving it all 🙏🏼
I won't tell you who to vote for, I just want your vote to move that needle ❤ God bless you
Amen.
Steven A. Save it... We are not voting for HARRIS!!!!
Sure not. I don't trust Kamala or the Democrats. I'm a black man
😹😹😹😹
Exactly, he’s talking out both sides of his mouth. I am not voting for her Period!!!
I would never vote for her.
Black men can vote for whoever the hell they want and for any reason they want.
You said ALL OF THAT to end with "I'm still voting for Kamala". SMH.
You refuse to see what the Democratic Party has done the 16 years since President Obama....more for LGBTQ, Immigrants & Funding Foreign Wars then for the American People.
Yes that was disappointing. He should have keep kept silent as to who he was voting for.
NOTHING FOR FOUNDATIONAL BLACK AMERICANS!
I’m sick and tired of getting treating like this as a black man. And then to have another black man talk down like this and pandering. Then you have black women jumping on black men as well when we did nothing but protect them. I’m done with the democrats. I had one eye opened before, now both are open. No more being a slave to the democrated party
I'm glad you've woken up from the matrix but I would advise you not to make the same mistake with the other party. Although I think Trump is better it's good not to be a slave to any party but to remain independent and to think for yourself.

THAN MABE YOU THINK LIFE WILL BE BETTER IF TRAMP WINS? YOU KNOW A LOT OF OUR BROTHERS DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT VOTING, AND YOU KNOW THE POLLS ARE VERY LOW ON BLACK MEN VOTING, THAT IS WHY OBAMA MADE HIS STATEMENT ABOUT THE BROTHERS VOTING, HE WAS ON THE MONEY, HE WAS RIGHT.

We hope so

Truth, what hypocrite he is. Do these people even listen to themselves?
He's bought and still on the plantation. He can't come out in support of Trump.
They are WELL PAID puppets! I paused the video at 1:47 minutes to read the comments and I found yours, thanks for the heads up; I cannot stand double speak. It just screams beta to me.
Nah this rant is not hypocritical it’s him pointing out that we “as black men” have the right to vote for who we want for whatever reason we have without being made to feel guilty about our choice. It appears that, like when Biden said “if we don’t vote dem we aren’t black,” Obama seemingly stating that black men not voting for Kamala is misogynistic… in short he can vote for whoever he wants guilt free as can you and the rest of us. Stay up ✌🏾
Before this election cycle I want to see Trump and Smith having a conversation. Smith admits to being friends with one of the most prominent Conservative pundits and has been on Mark Levine's radio show many times.
Black men are intelligent and created by God. Do not degrade them!
WHAT?

OBummer started all the bad issues we have now. He needs to go away - forever !!!!
Obama pissed off A LOT of black men with those comments, so much to the point that I've never seen so many black men being outspoken at the same time compared to what I saw a couple nights a go on Twitter with plenty of them directly responding to Obama's comments.
he did not piss me off
THEY SHOULD GET PISS OFF AND VOTE, HE IS RIGHT YOU KNOW A LOT OF BROTHERS DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT VOTING, THAT IS THE FACTS OF LIFE, THE POLLS A LOW ON BLACK MEN VOTING, LOOK IT AND YOU'LL SEE WHY OBAMA SPOKE ON IT, YOURS TRULY.
As a black woman, I'm insulted Obama spoke to black men in this manner. I refuse to vote for Kamala regardless of her race. It's her policies, which so far, she hasn't explained in detail. What little I have heard from her, she's not here to uplift the black race. What infuriates me is a whole lot of black women are voting for her because she's a woman and claims to be black.
@@zemorakeller6725 Well, what else is there to know? It's easy to see what her policies are. She was in total agreement with Biden on everything HE proposed. HIS policies are HER policies! Period!
She clarified on THE VIEW, when asked if there was anything she'd have changed had she to do it over again.
Out of her own mouth kamala said "NOT a THING comes to mind that needs changing. She was fully involved with EVERYTHING BIDEN stood for".
Wide open borders, sex change operations for jailed inmates, boys playing as girls in girls' sports, etc, etc!
HE THINKS HE HAS POWER BUT NOT NO MORE GO BACK TO HAWAII OBAMA AND DO NOT COME BACK EVER
Obama called it misogyny to deflect from Kamala's crazy policies and poor record, which many black men see.
Unfortunately, many men of all colors fail to see that Mr. Trump's economic policies will cause some severe issues for the middle class.

I don’t know why you thought that. He has to build up his followers and TRY to go viral. He is misquoting President Obama. Obama said that he knew “some of” the issue was what he said. And of course it’s unacceptable to vote for Trump if you know anything about his history of racism, his record, his inability to be trusted, his failures as president and asa businessman, his lack of fitness for office and his Cultic politics and following.

I don't support dems anymore bro. O no never more
To see how things are changing and how the previous administration did little to nothing for our side and crashed the economy on his first term, I would agree with what the ex president statement because at the end of the day, your record says a lot.
Economy was best it has ever been 2016-2019 … no president has ever faced anything like COVID … to say the economy crashing was Trump’s fault is a lie. He listened to Fauci and all the “scientists” when they demanded the country shut down. But he created operation warp speed, then came the vaccine and when Biden took over things were opening back up. And then when Biden’s policies took over, prices skyrocketed. Plz get your timeline right.
so the Biden-Harris administration is not responsible at all for anything wrong with the economy or the state of America right now? its just all Trumps fault lol? Delusional my guy! What administration has ever done anything for our side? what has the Biden Harris administration done for us?
@@zxro9996 What has the trump administration do for America but ride on Obama's healthy economy he inherited.

@@MichelleWalkerLilSis did he inherit a good economy? Yes. But he KEPT IT THAT WAY!

Stephen ! You should be an actor. You've got the best " deadpan " face since

Trump has done more for the black community in his lifetime than Biden and Kamala have combined, and less harm in all their lifetimes. BUT LETS VOTE DEMOCRAT BECAUSE IF YOU DONT, “you ain’t black”🙄
The moment you notice a vote isn't based on electing a leader. It's based on the conditioning of the minds in society. Hard to pass laws that will have rebuttal, the system is gauged to see what they can get away with. The polls show where people are at mentally.
