Stephen A. Smith Leads Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama in Betting Odds for 2028 Democrat Nomination
Breitbart ^ | 23 Feb 2025 | Warner Todd Huston

Even though President Donald Trump’s presidency is only a month old, there is already speculation about who could possibly take the reins of the sinking Democratic Party for the 2028 election, and one seemingly unlikely name has just zoomed up to fourth place in the betting odds list.

According to Front Office Sports, left-wing sports commentator Stephen A. Smith is popping up on the prediction market Kalshi as a top contender for the Democratic nomination for president in the 2028 election cycle.

Smith, who has lately become a sharp critic of the Democrat Party and its massive failures by foisting the senile Biden and the loser Harris on the country, is now being weighed as equally worthy as Democrats, including former Biden Treasury Secretary Pete Buttigieg, New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and hard-core, left-wing Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Currently, only California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore have better odds than Smith.

Smith has dismissed the idea of running for president, but it also seems he has not entirely ruled it out.

“I can’t imagine myself ever running,” he told Front Office Sports on Feb. 5. “The one thing that will always dissuade me from political office is having to campaign… Now, if I could just get interviewed and get into office, that would be different. But that campaign stuff would kill me because I am a straight shooter.”

This says a lot more about how pathetic the potential field for the Democrats is going forward than about Smith being a viable candidate.

In a hypothetical scenario that he's running for President, he has no chance in the primary because he's not "woke" enough.

Say what?!? Although I voted for President Trump in consecutive elections, I'm extremely disappointed in his performance as President and now realize that kamaLa would have made a far superior pResident and she, in fact, already would have been the Greatest pResident in American history. My bad.

It is time for the animal rights folks in the Democrat Party to take “progress” to the next level.

Fight human hegemony—nominate a chimp!

Smith is an idiot. He blasted the new New Orleans Saints head coach, Kellen Moore, for taking the job.

Democrats are too "woke" to have a conversation with Joe Rogan.

The money will be backing Newsom but a “hard left” challenger will emerge from the AOC wing.

The Shapiro/Beshear types won’t have a chance.

We’re in excellent shape in the next 2 to 3 election cycles.

I believe Smith himself said essentially that.

Maybe we could get a do over. Kamala and Big Mike would make a great team.

PS to my own post: TBH I’d much rather have Stephen Smith as POTUS than either Kamala Harris or Michelle Obama!

RATs have a light bench.

AOC will be old enough to run for POTUS in 2028.

True but I personally prefer AOC or any other member of The Squad or even Adam Schiff. I might be the only Republican saying this but I think Ilhan Omar as pResident and Adam Schiff as VP would be an unstoppable combination. They would instill intense fear into Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin.
