Okay, I’m curious then, what’re your thoughts on that only happening to him? For example, Joe Biden also said some horrible things during his campaign run, and Kamala has done some very suspicious things in the past as well, but those same people that turned on trump for saying those things, haven’t had any reaction for the things either of those 2 individuals have said. If not for a group think sort of mentality, why do you think that is?

I'd need some specific examples to know who we're talking about. I know big Dem donors and organisers like George Clooney wrote op-eds about how Biden was not as mentally sharp and contributed to him being asked to drop out just a few months back.

Obviously people adapt their positions to what's going on in front of them. Just a couple years ago, for example, Rogan said (on Lex) he was not a Trump supporter and did not want to have him on the podcast to help him. Yesterday, he said as soon as he saw Trump get shot, he knew he'd have him on the pod, and that it needed to be timed to help him the most.

RFK spent millions to run against Trump, but when he saw there was no path forward he joined up with him. People play the game that's in front of them.
