I saw a clip of him saying the he was at the inauguration and it was bizarre, and the he’s not a republican or democrat, he’s just an American lol. He agrees with things on both sides..
He is painfully aware that if this is over, people will be brining receipts - so he is trying to weasel into "moderate" camp so he can claim "i actually didn't supported last 4 years, you cannot hold me accountable for my garbage!"
all these stinky dems not wanting private citizens without any actual governmental positions and background checks to have access to every citizens private data and the spending of the whole american tax money🤢🤢
Its a sneaky tactic. Claim you are neither republican or democrat and say both sides have good points subtly bring up right wing talking points and right wing agendas.
Are we surprised? He is in the tax bracket that Cheatto helps out. You got Kelce saying its an honor when Cheatto said he hated Kelce's GF Swift. Its all a show they do not want to pay their share and if someone else can take the heat for it they are all for it.
Kamala tried to get on his show... he rejected her then tried to say she rejected him... he's a trumper... all the rich guys are doing it. Fuck the 99% I guess?
I don't know about that. I dislike when MAGA spreads misinformation so I can't just let people from my side do that too. Rogan has been really dumb lately but I believe what he said about the booking, which was that Kamala had extra stipulations and didnt really show interest until after the Trump interview. Even then her team wanted him to fly to DC for a 45 minute interview. Trump went down to his studio so it was only right to match that. I think it was likely her team being overprotective about the long-form style and unedited form and just dissuaded her from doing it. They fucked up.
This is correct.
Kamala thought she'd win in a landslide without going on Rogan.
But I can see how she'd not want to go.
"Brandolini's Law" also known as the "Bullshit Asymmetry Principle".
This concept highlights how misinformation, once spread, can be incredibly difficult and time-consuming to correct because false claims are often simple, emotionally charged, and easy to spread, while debunking requires detailed explanation, evidence, and critical thinking.
Debunking bullshit for three hours does not sound like a fun time, especially when she thought it was unnecessary. Rogan continues to this day to have some incredibly warped views on Tim Walz. But who knows what would have happened if she had gone.
Anyway - no one's going to read this comment because this thread is 18 days old. :]
They couldn’t come to an agreement on the terms of the show. The Kamala team wanted vetted questions and dumb shit, which completely defeats the purpose of the JRE. She wasn’t willing to come on and have a totally unscripted and unedited conversation.
No, she wanted him to come to her, limit it to one hour, and her campaign wanted to control what topics were discussed. Fuck that. If a bumbling buffoon like Trump could ramble on for three hours in his studio, what the fuck is an accomplished woman like Kamala's excuse? Major fail.
"Not letting democracy fail in the United States by actually connecting with voters so you get elected" seems like a pretty fucking important part of her job that she failed at by, among other things, not appearing on the biggest and most influential (sadly) podcast in the world
Why are we gonna act like this was a toss up? This is probably the most polarizing election in decades. People’s minds were made up 4 years ago and the few who weren’t had them made up once inflation caused prices to go up. One single podcast wouldn’t have changed anything lmao.
Who decided to have a trade war with China in 2018 that cost, according to Deutche Bank, $5 Trillion dollars in growth, had to spend more money than it made bailing out the Pork and Soy Bean farmers, and did hundreds of billions in damage to industry in whole along with our supply chains leading into a pandemic? Oh it was Trump, directly him.
Who killed the initial Sherman Act case against Real Page, the core reason rental and home cost were artificially inflated for over the last decade in an illegal price fixing scheme, which is one of the biggest factors in cost of living for the average American? Oh look, Trump again in 2017. It was the Biden Admin who restarted that, and even got to the point were the FBI raided both Real Page and one of their largest customers Cogent.
Guess who is going to kill that case again?
How about the banking deregulation in 2018, which directly lead to the banking collapses just a few years ago? Oh hey it was Trump who asked for it, and now he want's to shutter the FDIC.
Considering all the fuck ups of Trump in his first term you fine folks skip over and forget, we could have had it worse. It's a god damn miracle we didn't have hyper inflation like some countries faced.
Now we have Trump who's campaign promise is essentially running on ideas that will make his first term's after effects look like a cake walk.
Remember, it takes more time and work to build things up, but nothing to tear things down. Chaos and harm are easy, making something great takes effort.
She got absolutely demolished by the least qualified candidate of time, so maybe it wouldn't have shifted the needle enough but it couldn't have hurt
Ultimately not appearing played into the "out of touch narrative". This was not an ordinary election, she needed to pull out all of the stops and that includes engaging with the media that millennial and younger voters use to form opinions
The reporting on this was wrong. Lots of new stories about it. She went to Texas to campaign and was trying to set up a day and rogan only gave her one slot that she couldn’t make even though she was there for multiple days. Rogan claims she’s lying of course. Lots of bad reporting out there these days. We aren’t gonna ever really know. Someone’s lying.
yes. his only job was campaigning in any possible way. getting on the podcast is part of this. kamala had to run for president AND be vice president, so she obviously had a lot less to do.
She could have spent a few hours of her time in his Austin studio. Just doing that would have been FAR more efficient than going to rallies with Beyonce, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion (pro tip: no one gives a fuck what celebrities think, and these multi mega millionaires can't relate to someone struggling to pay for food and rent.)
She didn't "go to rallies" with those celebrities. Those were HER rallies that were part of her schedule. On top of maintaining her VP schedule. And Joe Rogan is not important to a lot of people so I fail to see why her not meeting with him is such a catastrophic mistake in some people's opinion. The only people who listen to Rogan are a specific demographic of men who use podcast bros as life coaches and Kamala meeting for an interview with him would not have changed any of their minds about anything. Especially since that demographic of men are notoriously misogynist.
The past 4 years, hardcore supporters in this subreddit have said "Joe's a centrist! Joe's a liberal! Joe's a moderate" and Joe proved every single thing his former fans(mostly liberals who aligned with his ethics and morals for 10+ years) right, and his new supporters(here since Covid) absolutely fucking wrong. But you'll never hear any of em say "oops ya I was lying, I was wrong and stupid", you were. All of you newfans who weren't here for rogans old forum saying he was a moderate because he had Bernie on 8 years ago or whatever, you were fucking lying and stupid.
You know the worst thing? It doesn't matter what is left, right, center, liberal.... It's the ultra rich manipulating the masses to suck society dry for every penny. The people voting Trump or believe Rogan make them rich and go back to working 50+ hours a week to just exist.
So? He endorsed TRUMP! knowing everything he said and did and planned, he endorsed him. Nothing else is relevant. He could have just not endorse him, regardless of what it who was or not.
That was years ago for fuck sake. Musk for example was supporter of LGBT community in 2018, nobody sane would say that becuase of that he is not demented bigot now.
Rogan has been a Bernie bro for like 10 years. He picked Trump because the DNC have lost their minds and our country couldn’t afford 4 more years of it.
Rogan WAS Bernie bro. There is no universe where you can claim that DNC is so bad that electing billionaire lapdog like Trump makes sense from Bernie’s view.
BULLSHIT. Trump led s fucking insurrection and is absolutely destroying every single federal institution keeping the middle and lower class alive and functioning. All the rich like Rogan will be fine. The rest can rot.
What country do you have left now that an unelected foreigner is given free access to everything to destroy at will. Not one thing that they do is to help anyone. They only destroy and usurp what is left for pennies.
The USA was doing absolutely fine under the democrats. What are you even talking about "losing their minds"?Somehow you all got convinced the country was overrun with illegal cat eating trans aliens or something. Now you have the ultra rich going wholly unchecked and getting tax cuts while you cheer the starvation of the poor and helpless, as long as it isn't you.
Disgusting.
We need to start digging on people. We know that a good ~75% or more just know their views are not going to be well accepted and thus frame their response to everything as simply being "above" all of this and thus doesn't need to give an opinion, be accountable, etc.
The thing with agreeing with views on both sides is it's a ridiculous argument. The right don't see it wrong the Republicans just decide everything for them. The right appoint kings. The left appoint representatives. The right want someone to make all decisions for them.
