Later that day, Smith commented on former President Donald Trump’s stance regarding a potential recession.

On March 11, 2025, Smith reflected on the impact of the American Rescue Plan signed by President Biden four years ago. He noted how this legislation resulted in significant savings for Americans and reduced health insurance costs for nearly 15 million people.
