Rogan Leaves Door Open for Harris Podcast Interview
On Friday, Donald Trump sat down for three hours with Joe Rogan during his podcast.
The Trump interview has blown up, with something in the neighborhood of 20 million downloads on Spotify in the first 48 hours.
Rogan would like to do an interview with Harris as well. And while he turned down their initial demands, he is leaving the door open for an interview.
Clock is Ticking
The move by Trump to interview on this particular podcast was huge.
Between YouTube and podcast downloads, I would bet this interview is already over 50 million listeners, which is a huge market that did not cost Trump a penny.
Rogan had previously stated that he wanted to interview both candidates, but Kamala is getting cute.
Even though she has a relatively tame campaign schedule, she wanted Rogan to come to her and she only wanted to dedicate an hour, which Rogan refused. Rogan wants the interview to take place in Austin, TX, where his studio is located.
To be clear... Harris needs Rogan more than Rogan needs Harris, so she has no negotiating power here.
Compare that to Trump, who traveled to Texas, and then spent three uninterrupted hours with Rogan without complaining a stitch.
Rogan explained the Harris snub to this point, posting, “They offered a date for Tuesday, but I would have had to travel to her and they only wanted to do an hour.
“I strongly feel the best way to do it is in the studio in Austin. My sincere wish is to just have a nice conversation and get to know her as a human being.”
He later added that he and the campaign are still open to having the interview, but there has been no movement.
Harris is a fool of she does not take the time out of her day to do this interview because she is not going to get an audience like this for the price of some jet fuel.
My opinion… it just make her sound like she is running away from an outlet she knows will challenge her if she starts spewing her usual lies.
Rogan is a middle-of-the-road guy, but he is also very fair, and I know he would not tolerate blatant lies, which is more than likely why Harris is finding reasons to avoid him.
