Stephen A. Smith Goes off on Jasmine Crockett over Constant Anti-Trump Comments: Aren’t You There to Get Stuff Done?

Smith: “However Jasmine Crockett chooses to express herself, I’m like, is that gonna help your district in Texas? Aren’t you there to find a way to get stuff done, as opposed to just be an impediment to what Trump wants? How much work goes into that? ‘I’m just going to go off about Trump, cuss him out every chance I get, say the most derogatory, incendiary things imaginable,and that’s my day’s work.’ That ain’t work. Work is saying, ‘That’s the man in power. I know what his agenda is. I’m not exactly in a position to stop him, since the Republicans have the Senate and the House, but maybe, if I’m willing to work with this man, I might get something out of it for my constituency, because, like Joe Manchin said, he’s there to represent, or was there for 15 years to represent the people of West Virginia.’ She’s supposed to be there to represent the people of Texas. I don’t know. Maybe that just sounds ignorant because it’s so simple, but it ain’t that damn complicated. We make it complicated. Damn, it’s frustrating. It really can be.”
