Radio host Stephen A. Smith posted a video Wednesday offering an apology to Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, after he previously called out her performative politics.<\/a><\/p>\n

Ahead of his show, Smith released a video<\/a> titled “An apology to Jasmine Crockett” that addressed his past attacks on the Texas representative’s fiery behavior.<\/p>\n

The cultural commentator said that his comments had “been misconstrued and misinterpreted” by critics<\/a> but that he felt compelled to defend Crockett after seeing “disturbing” comments about her from President Donald Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n

STEPHEN A. SMITH WARNS \u2018NOT A DAMN SOUL\u2019 CAN BEAT VANCE-RUBIO TICKET IN 2028 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I have no problem apologizing to my sister, because damn it, I want her to know I don\u2019t feel that way about her,” Smith said. “Just like I didn\u2019t feel that way about Kamala Harris. Just like I don\u2019t feel that way about the marvelous, the wonderful, the incomparable, the greatest first lady ever Michelle Obama, in my estimation or anybody else.”<\/p>\n

He continued, “But what we\u2019re going to do on this show is understand who the hell I am and how it\u2019s going to be as long as I\u2019m doing this show. I have no problem apologizing if I\u2019m wrong. I have no problem apologizing if I\u2019ve made somebody feel a certain kind of way.”<\/p>\n

Smith said he did not consider his remarks about Crockett\u2019s demeanor misogynistic or disrespectful but understood why people pushed back when compared with Trump\u2019s rhetoric.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m going to call it like I see it,” Smith said. “I can look Jasmine Crockett in the face and say, ‘I\u2019m sorry for any kind of noise I caused in your direction because she is accomplished, and she is smart, and she does have an incredible, incredible challenge working in this political climate on Capitol Hill.’ I got it.”<\/p>\n

He continued, “And when Trump came at her like that, I said, ‘Damn it.’ I was p—– off because I said that\u2019s what they\u2019re talking about when they\u2019re saying. You know what. When you question something about her, it\u2019s going to invite that.”<\/p>\n

Smith said that he did not wish to be associated with Trump’s rhetoric<\/a> attacking Black women and hopes to do right by Crockett.<\/p>\n

STEPHEN A. SMITH SAYS DEMOCRATS ARE ‘LOST,’ HINTS HE IS SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING PRESIDENTIAL RUN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“[T]hat doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m always right,” Smith said, going on to say Crockett was welcome to come to a televised town hall with him next month. “And it doesn\u2019t mean that I\u2019m beyond apologizing when I\u2019m wrong in any way because I\u2019m not here to hurt. I\u2019m here to help.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital<\/a> reached out to Crockett’s office for comment.<\/p>\n

Smith stood by general efforts to criticize Crockett and “challenge” authority. Nevertheless, he added that he respected “the hell” out of Crockett and encouraged her to run for the U.S. Senate<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Smith called out Crockett for appearing to care more about saying provocative things to get noticed rather than serving her constituents.<\/p>\n

“\u2019I’m just going to go off about Trump, cuss him out every chance I get, say the most derogatory, incendiary things imaginable, and that’s my day’s work,'” Smith mocked.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
