Emmitt Smith wonders why we expect so much from athletes like Cam Newton but not President Trump

[jaysunb]

In an interview with SI Now Live, Smith called the attacks “overkill” and believes that athletes are held to a higher standard than Pres. Donald Trump.

“It’s amazing we expect so much from our athletes but don’t expect the same from our president and chief,” Smith said. “These are mistakes, these are things that he may have thought was funny and someone took offense to it. Sensitivity levels are so high, for what reasons I don’t know.”
