Summary

A new book alleges that Kamala Harris was set to appear on Joe Rogan’s podcast during the 2024 campaign but was blocked when Rogan’s team suddenly scheduled Donald Trump instead.

Harris’ team carefully planned a trip to Texas to align with Rogan’s terms, only to be told he was unavailable—only for Trump to secure an interview that same day.

The book claims Elon Musk and UFC CEO Dana White influenced Rogan’s decision.

Harris’ team made a last-minute attempt for an interview, but Rogan declined.

    I think her going on his podcast would have been a fucking disaster.

    She probably would have given a bunch of PR nothing sandwich answers and Joe would have lost interest.

    I mean who knows, maybe it would have gone over amazing, but thinking Kamala lost because of that podcast or Trump won because of that podcast is a fucking anatomical amount of cope from the Democrats.

    There is a long list of consistent missteps that come before the whole podcast fiasco for the Democrats.
