The lefty's vote isn't gonna be swung if Trump parts the Red Sea and climbed a beanstalk to the moon

I do see your point sir, I also see what I consider to be a different angle

im not fiting over it
As I said when this thread was created, day late and a dollar short. This doesn't change the electorate this late in the game, and especially now with the timing of a Friday night dump.

You're failing to acknowledge or realize that Rogan could have had Trump on a silver platter for many years. This could have been done yesterday, or it could have been released on Monday....let alone a month ago when early voting began.
He didn't want him on until very recently. Joe changed his mind on him maybe a year ago now. Less probably. I think Dana and him coming to the fights slowly helped change his mind.

Trump was in town. He came on Rogan. Not much more to it.

Much more to it. He didn't want Trump on, "didn't want to help him." It wasn't logistics. Trump has several jets. Very easy to get in touch with. Very easy to get an interview with. Trump is more accessible than any politician. If The View wanted him on tomorrow, he'd be there even though it's hostile.

With the negatives I have mentioned, I have to say, thus far into the interview I'm surprised Rogan hasn't been an asshole. He's losing "friends" over this for sure, but to his defense of those "friends" who disassociate, Kamala rejected the interview request, so he does have that to lay back on. Rogan never would have allowed Trump on without the Kamala invite, which is dumb. He's had anyone and everyone on, controversial or not, without having to weigh the scale, until now.

All due respect I think you're simply overthinking this

It is essentially a rally which is good, probably swings a few tens of thousands of Rogan fans as well

This will pop up in a ton of podcast feeds so I do think the viewers will keep racking well into next week

Rogan did a good job keeping Trump on track from his repetitive talking points. Solid interview. Rogan got the alien tease.

How so? He's rejected Trump, probably the biggest name he could ever get on his podcast, for years. His reason? He didn't want to help him. No overthinking at all. His words, not mine, and let's not act like it wouldn't have been his biggest viewed podcast ever, no matter the year in which he did it.

He stated Dana made it happen, btw. RFK joining Trump had influence too probably, though he didn't mention that. No way he would have done it otherwise. He's a liberal whose party left him, but he didn't leave it.

Rogan has horrible eye/taste
That Neon Sign doesn't nothing for his studio/set, it hurts his product, should be darker on that wall for contrast

Rogan does seem like he was forced to do the interview lol, what a bitch...a very butthurt rogan right now

Trump was solid, some rambling and was repeating campaign talking points

I am happy to state that Rogan wasn't the douchebag I thought he would be. Liberal missiles incoming should be fun.

I'm halfway through and this is way better than I thought it would be.
Agree with many of you.

Let me just say, yes, now Tucker has been on Rogan as well as Musk, Trump, PBD & Rogan.
Jack Kruse would blow shit up.

I find it odd how you view this. Its like you see this as some Game of Thrones plotline. You think a thing should happen a certain way and when it doesnt you start to work backwards to explain why it didnt.

About 50% of JRE episodes are Joe's friends, maybe more. The rest are people making documentaries and writing books no one has ever heard of that Joe gives a platform to that end up being interesting a good portion of the time. Very few political episodes in general. Rogan gives almost zero fucks about who people want on his show and has on who he wants. Spotify already paid him, its his playground now and he can do what he wants.

Up until a year ago I didnt like Trump and voted third party in 2016 because I disliked him so much and no fuckin chance I voted for Hillary. He always struck me as some smug wealthy asshole, I saw him as the Apprentice guy and the guy who wrote The Art of the Deal, which was one of the worst sales related books I had ever read. There are a ton of people with similar stories and to some degree Rogan was one of them. People come around.

But there he is on the podcast and folks are still nitpicking about it.
