Pundit Stephen A. Smith took a shot at CNN anchor Jake Tapper over revelations in his new book focusing on former President Biden's mental decline toward the end of his presidency.
Smith argued Tapper "deserves" the criticism he is getting over the book, much of which questions what he knew about Biden's mental state as he covered the former president's final weeks in office.
"But why did, why did he deserve it? Here is why. You got the video of him talking to Lara Trump and how — how condescending he was to her, etc." Smith said while appearing on NewsNation's "CUOMO."
"And I’m certainly not here to throw shade on him, I don’t play that game," he continued. "I’m just talking about the facts. They are what they are and we see it."
Smith, a sports commentator who has dabbled in politics more recently, took issue with what he said has been Tapper's attitude while promoting his new book, "Original Sin," written alongside Axios's Alex Thompson.
"And so it’s about how you were acting towards people who had the audacity to be opposite and express some level of dissent to what you were saying, and what you were reporting on, and what your network was reporting on," Smith said.
"It’s not the fact that you were just wrong. It was the defiance and the condescending approach that you had, a dismissive approach that you had towards others," he added.
Smith's increasing commentary on politics has sparked speculation he might run for president as a Democrat, a suggestion he has brushed aside on several occasions.
