Espns Stephen A Smith Hit With Hard Question During the Show

Stephen A. Smith had a tough question asked his lap during Wednesday’s edition of “First Take” – would he rather be president of the United States or the next New York Knick’s head coach?

Smith had to think about it as he floated the opportunity to drive to president and has added his vote to some of the hot-butt-policy issues discussed in that arena. But Knicks also fired Tom Thibodeau and has a position open.

The ESPN personality did not necessarily like the idea of ​​working under Knick’s team owner James Dolan and said he might want to be president more than the next head coach of the Team in Orange and Blue.

“Can you see Stephen A. trying to negotiate the Ukraine-Russia situation?” Chris “Mad Dog” Russo asked.

“I wouldn’t try to negotiate it. I would cooperate with the European Union. I would cooperate with the United Nations. I would do what I could to strengthen us. I will not give Ukraine unlimited funds, but I know that Russia’s ultimate quest is to regain Europe and I will not happen. That’s why I would help Ukraine.”

Russo welcomes Smith, but uncovered by moving on in the political area.

Smith told ABC News in April he had no choice but to consider a presidential driving.

I have no choice because I have had chosen officials – and I will not give their names – coming up to me. I have had people who are subtle coming up to me. I have had people who have received a lot of money, billionaires and others who have talked to me about the investigative committee and things of that nature. I’m not a politician. I’ve never had a desire to be a politician, “Smith said.
