Stephen A. Smith didn’t just disagree with The View — he called them out on live television for peddling the same tired Democratic talking points that keep the party out of touch with everyday Americans. His blunt takedown was the kind of straight talk conservatives respect: stop lecturing voters and start solving real problems like inflation and public safety.
Smith’s message to the Democrats was simple and patriotic — focus on affordability and safety if you want to win back working-class voters — and he refused to be shouted down when The View’s hosts tried to dismiss his criticism. That clarity is refreshing in an era of cable punditry where nuance is too often sacrificed for partisan theater.
Whoopi Goldberg even admitted on air that The View has been used to help spread Democratic talking points, an uncomfortable truth that explains why so many viewers have stopped trusting daytime cable as a neutral space. It’s no wonder that millions see these shows as partisan megaphones rather than honest forums for debate.
The clash got heated when the hosts defended a video by Democrats telling service members to refuse unlawful orders — an issue Smith rightly flagged as dangerous and reckless when presented as political theater. He made the practical point conservatives have been making for years: rhetoric that undercuts the chain of command or dismisses real consequences is irresponsible, no matter who says it.
Viewers on both sides of the aisle noticed the hypocrisy, and even critics mocked the show for how transparently it pushes a party line rather than engaging in genuine scrutiny. When celebrity reaction and social media pile on, it’s a clear sign mainstream outlets have lost the trust of working Americans who want solutions, not sermonizing.
Conservatives should applaud Smith for refusing to bow to the midday choir and for forcing a conversation about priorities that actually matter to families across this country. We don’t need more moral preening from TV elites — we need leaders and commentators who put the prosperity and safety of citizens first, and that’s exactly what Smith demanded.
