3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 15

Summary

  • Stephen A. Smith said Donald Trump is "certainly an upgrade" over Joe Biden on alertness, even as he kept up their public spat over Trump’s NBA Finals appearance.
  • Game 3 of the Finals triggered the clash after Smith called Trump’s attendance selfish and narcissistic, then said the president appeared to nap and disrupted the Knicks before their 115-111 loss.
  • Trump answered by calling Smith a "low IQ" figure unfit for office, while Smith challenged him to debate the decisions he has made rather than attack his intelligence.
  • Saturday’s Knicks championship — the franchise’s first in 53 years — briefly cooled tensions, with Smith saying the title mattered more than politics or the feud.
