In recent weeks he has been critical of the party and he even recently predicted that they will struggle to beat JD Vance in the following presidential elections in 2028.

Donald Trump flew to Los Angeles on Friday after officially returning to the White House
He said: “The man was accused twice, he was convicted of 34 crime counts and the American people still said:” He is closer to normal than what we see on the left “.
'Why? For example, because when you talk about the transgender community and you are talking about issues that relate to less than one percent of the population, the Democratic party happened as if that was more a priority than other issues.
“So when he appears on Capitol Hill on week one, he says:” This is what we are going to do through an executive order, “even though it is shot by the courts.
“But he says:” I kept my promise “. Then you turn around and look to the left and say: “What promises have you kept?”
“What the voter can look outside of it at the Democratic Party and say:” There is a voice for us, someone who speaks for us, who goes on Capitol Hill and fights the fights that we want them to fight on our behalf. “
“They didn't do that and that's why they are left at home, and that man is back in the White House. He does what he said he would do. He promised you that he was going to do these things and he walked to the office and that is exactly what he does. '
Smith admitted that earlier this week Trump Self above the law by forgiving two notorious former extreme right -wing leaders who are involved in storming the Capitol.
Only a few hours after his second term as president, Trump led to great controversy by Stewart Rhodes, founder of the 'militia' of the anti-government, to be released on Tuesday.

Rhodes served a prison sentence of 18 years for his role in the Capitol riots on January 6, 2021, while Tarrio was imprisoned for 22 years.
Although both men are convicted of incitement conspiracy, one of Trump's first actions as president was to release them from prison after signing the claim.
And while his general pardon released at least 1500 people who were sued in the riots, who took place after his 2020 election area against Joe Biden, Smith believes that Rhodes and Tarrio should not run in particular to run free.
“In terms of grace people of the riots in Capitol, USA on January 6, 2021, I disagree with that decision by the President of the United States,” the ESPN first hosted his YouTube show.
“I really believe that many people should have been grace. But if you take the proud guys and the Eath keepers with you [leaders out of prison]And given the charges that were leveled against them … everyone who deals with violence, for me who should have been different.
'If you are the supreme commander of the United States of America, if you preach the importance of law and order, and someone is flagrant with lawlessness, but you give them a pass only because they have supported you … you' supports' Not, you support you. “
