Charles Barkley Reveals Whether Or Not He Would Vote For Stephen A. Smith In 2028 Election

LMAO … just Charles being Charles.

When it comes to American culture today and how we view things, you’d think the majority of us would love to see ESPN superstar Stephen A. Smith throw a wrench into the Democratic Party.

With that being said, we’re also realists and are aware that Smith running for president is absolutely laughable. Just ask NBA legend and current basketball analyst Charles Barkley.

It’s quite clear that Barkley has had enough, because he kept it a bean when shooting a message off to Stephen A., saying that Smith needs to “knock it off” when it comes to talking about being in the White House. As you probably know, Smith has been all over the media as of late acting like a serious candidate for office. (RELATED: Here’s How Stephen A.

Talking with Jimmy Traina of Sports Illustrated, Sir Charles blasted Smith’s political talk and told him to chill.

“Calm down, Stephen A. — and Stephen A. is one of my friends,” said Barkley to Traina. “C’mon, man. Stop it. C’mon. It had to start out as a joke and he started taking it serious. C’mon, man. All I would say is ‘knock it off.’ And that’s the best way to phrase it.

“Hard no.”

WATCH:

Charles Barkley is not into Stephen A. Smith’s Presidential run.

At all.
