After former president Donald Trump was found guilty on all 34 charges he faced in his hush money trial, Stephen A. Smith gave his immediate reaction.
Donald Trump became the first former president to be a convicted felon on Thursday. The 45th president, and presumed Republican nominee this year, was found guilty of all 34 counts he faced in his hush money trial. Despite the guilty verdict, Trump and his supporters remain strong, but that may lead to discourse in the country, says ESPN's Stephen A. Smith.
The media mogul reacted to the verdict on his YouTube show, with his immediate feeling that he was 'scared as hell.' 'It all points to civil war in this country . . . .' Smith said. We're all pawns. We're all subject to the mercy of politicians who find a way to manipulate the system and ultimately manipulate us. . . . That's a concern I had before January 6, when the U.S. Capitol was stormed by a bunch of Trump supporters.
It ain't about Trump being in jail, it ain't about him being a convicted felon. I don't want him to be the President of the United States, period,' Smith quipped. 'Because I think he's divisive, and I think he will serve to divide America.' Smith backed up his reasoning by referencing Trump saying the trial was 'rigged' with a 'crooked' judge. 'The man is a problem.
