Stephen A Smith As A Democratic Candidate In 2028?

As a introduction....Stephen A Smith is a ESPN 'talker' for sports.  Lately, he's been in conversations over political positions.

I would  describe his position....working-class guy....NOT a intellectual...probably taking only half of Biden's/Harris's positions of 2024.  Yeah, he has bluntly said....there are a lot of dumbass positions by the Democratic Party, and said that woke-stuff....is harming the nation.

The fact that half the voters are fairly attached to the far-left BS?  Well....he'd have to have a VP candidate who was far-left, and a '6' on the crazy-crazy index.....to get nomination and run a serious campaign. On this....he's not likely to pick Weltz as a VP person....but he could pick Mayor-Pete (for gay votes).

The fact that he has never run a campaign?  Yeah, that's a 4-star problem.

The fact that he's never held office before?  Yeah, that's a 4-star problem.

The fact that AOC is likely a primary competitor?  Yeah, that's a 4-star problem.

But here's the simple fact....they need some moderate to convince the public....they've changed values/directions.  He's the guy.

 

Five Questions

 1.  Was Covid a 'test'?

I know that probably a quarter of society believes in this fantasy, but there's pretty much zero evidence to support the idea.

I do agree....the vax-business was designed to get vaccinated people to a certain 'status' of health....oddly with kids dragged into this frame of requiring a vaccination.  That part of the story is pretty suspect.

2.   How many Americans have Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)?

Well....officially, NO ONE has done a study on this, or devised a index to identify your level (say 1-to-10).

I think that some PhD folks are fearful....if you open up such a study and admit that 12-million Americans suffer from extreme TDS....what would you do to treat them? Mental help?  How?

Then the question comes  up....are they starting to have associated mental and physical problems, and lessening their lives by a decade?

3.  Do both Tren de Aragua (the Venezuelan gang) and MS-13 have lobbyists and campaign donation situations brewing with  politicians? 

Officially....currently....we can say no.  I suspect by the end of 2025....enough evidence will exist to show both have a lobbyist support group (or  two), and both have a minimum of  $10-million in campaign donations from 2024 by itself.

The trouble is....it's a crowded area....the Columbia cartel probably has a lobbyist, and even the Mexican cartel folks maintain a DC presence.

4.  Is it possible that a quarter of the voting public doesn't see drug-and-human-trafficking gangs as terror organizations?

I think well over 50-million Americans are conditioned in some way....to deny facts, and just operate with a mindset that things are just not understandable.  It's like saying anything above 5th-grade math....is too hard for their mind to handle.

This group moves along like this...until one day....a neighbor's kid dies from fentanyl, or is murdered by some Tren  de Arragua gang member....then they revert to reality.

5.  If you developed a propaganda 'meter' and  could readily identify 90-percent of propaganda dished out to you....are the propagandists in trouble?

Well...it means for every ten propaganda lies told....only one of them are effectively working on you.  It would also appear....you are improving your meter, and that ten percent of effective lies....will dissolve shortly.

So as AI enters the system....it probably will start assigning BS index-numbers  to stories, and make propaganda a waste of time.

Crystal Ball

 Three predictions:

1.  The Letitia James scandal?

I'll predict within 3 weeks...a  home raid occurs at her NY residence, and the residence homes in Virginia.  

By late August...evidence will be handed over....charges drafted, and a arrest occurs.  Court-case?  Just guessing....January 2025.

But here's the odd thing....if you brought up 535 House/Senate members....at least hundred of them live in DC, Virginia and Maryland...owning houses/condos.  They also have signed forms to say that's their primary residence, and done some form of fraud.  

I'll predict by the end of 2025....an investigation starts on 535 members, and this residence thing is brought up....with at least fifty of them in some form of pressure to resign or be forced out (mix of Republicans and Democrats). 

As for James?  She ends up with a fine of $100k, legal costs of $250k, and having to admit she wasn't really a resident of Virginia...meaning back-tax situations exist.  Jail-time?  No.

2. College students and high school kids start talking of due-process over grades, home-work and regulations.  By the end of 2025....all of this due-process BS....draws public attention, and Congress by mid-2026 is asked to limit due-process.

3.  Some PhD-level study will conclude by the end of 2025....to show a quarter of college attendees (and graduates) don't have the IQ capacity to be there.
