“Republicans buy shoes too…” Stephen Curry laughs off Michael Jordan quote after endorsing Kamala Harris

Stephen Curry has been very vocal about his views such that he recently clarified his political stance by endorsing Kamala Harris‘s presidency for the upcoming elections. In an interview with Bloomberg’s Emily Chang, Curry explained his decision to publicly support Harris and expressed frustration with the backlash often accompanying political endorsements.

While doing so, Steph Curry also acknowledged Michael Jordan‘s well-known comment “Republicans buy sneakers too.” The Baby-faced Assassin with a smirk acknowledged MJ’s long-standing reluctance to publicly engage in political matters.

"I approach everything with decency and humanity. It's not like I'm out here casting flames at the other side. It's just, this is what I believe in, whether you agree with me or not. Like you want to be able to foster positive conversations and you want to be able to have an intelligent conversation about what's actually happening."

-Stephen Curry said

The Warriors’ star then emphasized how he loves expressing political views that often lead to negative reactions, but also believes it’s important to stay true to one’s convictions. He argued that, while not everyone will agree with his perspective, mutual respect and understanding should guide political discussions.

There’s a general feeling that due to him living in California and having a personal connection to Harris, who hails from San Francisco, Chef Curry’s endorsement aligns with his support for local and national figures he believes in.

You sound intelligent enough to know what Harris would do to the country

It sounds to me like he's a CNN watcher, which means he does NOT know ... because CNN will not say what she really is about. Kamala is joy and happy warrior crap and unburdening and hahahahahahahahhahahaha.

He's been an athlete all along ... and athletes tend to be light on academics.

There's a Heinlein quote somewhere about worshiping celebrities and athletes and how foolish it is to think they actually know things outside their field of expertise.

A great basketball player but not a great thinker.

THE ILLEGALS are invading EVERYWHERE.

I wonder how he likes THAT???

This fool not only endorsed her, he endorsed her specifically because he wants to see more babies KILLED.

Let's be real. Curry is probably trying to make his wife happy.

Obviously, a high IQ isn’t required to play basketball.

Curry can say this as he’s at the end of his career. Jordan was smart enough to stay quiet during his peak.

It was different during Jordan's career. Why would he endorse Bill Clinton in 1992? How would that benefit him?

Right you are, never buy anything that Stephen Curry hawks. Boycott him and his fellow traveler.

How special, hearing the ill-informed political opinions of Low IQ leftist athletes...

He’s thinking, all right. His own mother killed an older brother - and almost killed him too, as she explained in a 2022 memoir she published.

Do you know if steph curry’s mother aborted his older brother when she was married to Steph’s father Del, while he played in the NBA?

Curry never would have made it as a player 30 years ago. All he does is shoot three-pointers. I could be a good three-point shooter with enough practice.

Try threading a pass inside the lane for an easy layup. Now that’s a skill not many have.
