Joe Rogan rejects Kamala's demands
Good on Joe Rogan for not accepting Kamala's demands for doing an interview.

She wanted Joe Rogan to fly to her location and the interview would be for an hour.

That's not the Joe Rogan Experience, it's Kamala wanting special treatment.

Considerations:
1) she is horrible at interviews
2) cannot go longer than 40 mins or so
3) cannot go unscripted

BECAUSE of the above, it makes sense for her NOT to do the interview. If I were her campaign manager I would advise her NOT to do it as nothing can come from it.


1) The Rogan podcast is the biggest in the world.
2)That Trump interview now has 35M views, in less than a week. That's crazy.
3) Rogan's primary demographic are young adult men
4) Kamala is losing the demographic of young adult men (as per media, not me)
5) On the surface, it would make a great choice for her to mitigate some of those losses by appearing Rogan.

BUT, because of the facts above about her weaknesses at interviews, it would be a disaster for her. So she definitely shouldn't do it.

What she should have done from the beginning was arm herself with interview training. She was absent from all interviews and press for over a month in the beginning. Presumably because she was horribad at this (which later she proved was correct). She should have spent the time in hyper-training. She didn't. IF she had the skills, the Rogan interview could have been a boon. She failed to develop those skills, so it's a bane.
This is what happens when you're political leaders are picked instead of voted for. The fact Democrats running around talking about saving democracy when they don't even practice it is unbelievable.

They knew for two years Joe was braindead. Shills on this site prefer a braindead puppet with a government ran by an unelected group of advisors.

Just heard about this myself.

Greg Foreman already has his take out on it:

It's actually not unusual.

Face it - Rogan's show isn't exactly prime campaign territory for Harris.

Plus, it's not "televised live." It's probably a "radio show" to them and, thus, easily capable of being done remotely.

Have you ever seen other interviews that weren't done in the studio where the broadcast was usually hosted? Even on television? Trump has done plenty of those. Was he "wanting special treatment?" Maybe we should put together a list of where he did interviews with interviewers while at on the road or not at the studio?

I think the Harris campaign just doesn't really give a crap about being on the Rogan show, to be honest. I don't see why they should, either.

But, that this is such a terrible "special treatment" request is just bogus whining. It's common, especially for traveling/campaigning politicians.

Doesn't hold up considering Trump has been far busier with travel and campaigning than Kamala has. If he can do it at his age, she should certainly be able to do so at hers.

Kamala probably should of because Trump was able to speak to 38 million people in 4 days

Pretty sure TV doesn’t hit those numbers

Trump has the time because he's not currently in government.

Truly an interesting watch. You can truly witness just how demented Trump is when watching him unfiltered for 3 hours.

Man is not well mentally. He's fading fast.

One could argue that Kamala isn't either. One must "govern" if they are "in government".

She's the VP, not the President. She has plenty of time. When a current elected official is running for office accommodations are made for their campaign. And as VP, there's no excuse.

I'm not even a fan of the show, but I kind of wish they'd do it. Personally I think 3 hours is too long for such an interview, but I don't think Rogan would be especially hard on her. The fact neither want to travel for it doesn't strike me as particularly remarkable.

I'm inclined to believe you already realize you don't actually mean that.

OK. You're welcome to believe whatever you like.

Just so long as you respect my pronouns.

How so specifically? Seems like most people who watched it saw it as a favorable interview for him. You disagree, but why?
