ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith doesn’t like what he is seeing in the Democratic Party and called for an end to members’ fearmongering.

Smith spoke to Fox News host Mark Levin about his regrets after voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and said he is “open-minded enough” to vote for a Republican in the future if they deliver the right message.

“I voted Democrat, and I got to tell you something right now, I don’t like the fact that I did. I don’t like what I’m seeing,” the ESPN analyst said on “Life, LIberty & Levin,” Saturday.

Sounds like Stephen A. Smith has some regrets! At least he’s finally awake and admitting this… “The American people aren’t falling for it any longer. I voted Democrat, and I have to tell you something right now: I don’t like the fact that I did…”

“I don’t want to hear about, ‘Oh we’re about the law. Nobody’s above the law. Nobody’s above the law.’ But then you go out, and you pardon your son, and you try to blame everybody else for it,” Smith said, referring to President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son Hunter.

“I don’t want to hear about defund the police. I don’t want to hear about, you know what? There should be open borders. I don’t want to hear this stuff. And I don’t think most of the American people want to hear that,” he told Levin.

He contended that he is “no longer interested in… listening to a bunch of fearmongering to tell us who we shouldn’t vote for.”

“Why don’t you come up with a plan that tells us why we should vote for you?” he asserted.

“We’re not about America only, but being about America and prioritizing what’s going on in this nation with the desolate and the disenfranchized and everybody else in between, and looking out for the best interests of what it is for America… that is not a crime for an American politician or commander in chief or senator or congressional figure to have that mentality,” Smith continued.

“If Donald Trump, JD Vance, Byron Donalds, Marco Rubio, or a host of other Republican candidates coming down the pike, that’s the kind of message that they’re going to put forth, I’m down for it. I’m open-minded enough to make sure that they entertain that from a policy perspective. That’s what I want for the American people. That’s what I want for this nation,” he told Levin.

He concluded that he could “quite possibly” vote for Trump if he was able to run again but concluded that the incoming president would still have to “prove a lot.”

“What concerned me about Donald Trump, and the reason I voted against him and voted for Kamala Harris, was because I felt that he would be divisive. That he would create chaos because he demands such a level of loyalty and fealty to him. And that would take priority over governing our nation. That was my concern,” he said.

“It can’t be just about fealty to him and loyalty to him. It has to be about getting the job done on behalf of what’s in the best interests of the American people as opposed to yourself, and not engaging in the kind of juvenile tendencies, tweeting all the time and going after people who are really…irrelevant in the grand scheme of things,” Smith said. “You do things like that, and you show that you’re the adult in the room, I don’t think anybody could dismiss Donald Trump at this particular moment in time.”
