Regarding his thoughts on the election’s outcome, he was unable to resist praising Donald Trump for winning in spite of the obstacles. During his broadcast yesterday, he stated: “Donald Trump’s return to the White House is the greatest comeback probably in American history,” “Thirty-four felony counts, two impeachments — I can’t count the number of mistakes that he has made. When he departed in 2020 after the insurrection at the United States capital, we all thought he was finished, he was done.”
Smith even stated earlier this year that he would have it in the bag if he were to debate Trump. In January, he told Howard Stern: “I would love to be in a presidential debate,” . “I’d eat him alive. I wouldn’t run for the presidency, but I’d debate Trump any day of the week. Any day of the week. Name the time and place and I’d show up.”
