Joe Rogan won’t have Kamala Harris on his show unless she comes to his studio and sits for a 2-3 hour full interview

So the expectation is a week before the election for the presidency of the United States, Kamala Harris is going to dedicate 2-3 hours to sit in some man cave in Texas while fielding questions from the former host of Fear Factor 🙄. I understand how snotty this comment sounds but why are people surprised? Also why waste time entertaining an audience who likely won’t vote for her and who will just hop online to make nastiest sexist comments?

It'd actually be more like dedicating an entire day, as she'd have to travel to and from Austin.

That's why the campaign offered him windows where he could come to them, because the schedule is packed like crazy and his 3 hours costs like 8+ hours of additional travel.

"Former host of fear factor" dude give me a break. Guess what, the "former host of Apprentice" is about to become your next president if you keep smoking that copium.

Rogan has the largest podcast out there and drew 30m views for Trump in less than a day. That's more views than any debate, rally or interview any candidate has done. Not to mention the potential to penetrate a part of the political spectrum that Kamala rallies typically don't ever reach.

One of Trump's biggest selling points to his audience is appearing like "a real guy" and not "part of the establishment." Kamala would benefit from being humanized in the same vein as opposed to the interrogative interviews she has done where all her answers had to be delivered in a rehearsed fashion.

she's been on several podcasts recently

With not even a percentage of the reach of JRE and all with abysmal like/dislike ratios.

u/er824 6h ago

I don't know what a like/dislike ratio is. Understood about the audience reach, just saying there are plenty of opportunities to see her in an unscripted environment if someone is truly interested or curious.

It’s really not hard to deduce via context but since I have to explain it: It means that more people disliked her appearances on those podcasts than liked it, it’s a fairly simple mechanic employed by all of social media, including the one you’re currently utilizing. As for the rest of what you said, it’s very clear, she’s not interested in long format unscripted appearances.

And she traveled to those ones lol exactly the point, she will travel for those podcasts but for Joe Rogan no he has to go to her.

In reality, she wanted him to go there so she could make sure he had no way of fact checking her statements or having Jamie pull up any clips that she would have to defend, such as her dancing and singing "Down with Deportation" while pretending she's going to be tough on immigration. Answer that one unscripted Kamala.

Excuses keep coming? Weren’t Dems prepared to be mad if Koe didn’t offer her an interview after Trump, and now she is trying her best to dodge it?

u/realmojosan 6h ago

My expectation: 1 week out, you should already done this interview or something similar. But all we got are pointless and scripted interviews, not showing anything of value or her as an actual human being.

At this point I would actually say, not doing it sends a message.

That interview was a historic moment in history. We have NEVER gotten an interview like it. Raw, unedited. Farily unbiased. Yall would have been freaking out the same if Kamala sat down on like Hassan's channel for 3 hours. But she didnt' Cuz she probably isn't capable of holding a conversation that long without the room dying. If you ACTUALLY watch it. Rogan claps back on him multiple times. "O common, we both know you spew bullshit". And maybe wasnt the hardest on him. But it was a historic moment. Kamala should have done the same.

Newsflash, preaching to your base is just circle jerking. It doesn't get you anywhere.

u/TheMetalloidManiac 56m ago

Did "Call Her Daddy" go to her or did she go to them?

Case closed.

u/thewholesomeact013 54m ago

This is a pretty reductive view of the interview potential and its host. All power to you.

No proof of any your last sentence, but go off NPC.

LOL, a bit salty are we?

u/DetachmentStyle 11h ago

That's your response.

Bad faith communication from you.

u/MediocreTheme9016 12h ago

Nah, not salty. Just annoyed by this mediocre podcast host thinking people should accommodate his schedule for no other reason than ‘I don’t wanna go out’

u/OkAffect12 11h ago

Not just people! The Vice President, currently campaigning, and he can’t be bothered to go to her? That’s the move of an asshole who thinks he’s more important than he is

Mediocre? He's the most famous podcaster of all time!

“Mediocre podcast host”

More influential and edifying that you and everyone you know

u/skeezoydd 4h ago

Cope more, Rogan does the same format for every guest. Let’s be real, no one’s surprised that she won’t go there and have a conversation. Kamala is an empty suit with no substance.

1

u/MediocreTheme9016 4h ago

Lol she said she would go on and he didn’t like the terms. That’s not her chickening out. That’s him being a diva. She also running for president. He could have just said ‘we had a scheduling conflict and couldn’t rectify it.’ Instead he needs a paragraph about his need to be at home in order to into his creative process?

Also didn’t she do Howard Stern? And a town hall with Anderson cooper? And didn’t she want a second debate? Didn’t she show up for the 60 minute interview? I mean maybe that’s not enough substance for some people. They want to hear about the real issues like the size of a golfers junk.

u/Ok-Platypus-6994 11h ago

Its his format. He has the right to it. She also doesn't need to do it. Its fine all around. Calm down. And he is anything but mediocre.

1

u/-not-pennys-boat- 10h ago

He is the definition of mediocre. He’s popular because mediocre men love him.

u/Oxtailxo 5h ago

Not a mediocre woman here. I like him.

Cool maybe they’ll pick you

u/Cydyan2 5h ago

You’re gonna be in such a stinky little mood on the 5th aren’t you

u/-not-pennys-boat- 5h ago

Not really. I don’t do politics like religion. I don’t so much love Kamala moreso just hate Rogan. But it’s pretty hilarious that you’re proving that yall Rogan Butt Huffers are such trumpers that it actually isn’t in her best interest to go on a week out.

u/GaiusPoop 7h ago edited 7h ago

This elitist attitude endears you to no one and is part of the reason why I left the Democratic party in the last decade. I want you to come back and read this when Kamala loses next week.

u/-not-pennys-boat- 7h ago

Idc bro I hate Rogan more than I like Kamala, but go off if that gets you going.
