There was apparently serious talk about Harris going on the show, but it never happened. Doug Emhoff claimed the plans didn't happen because they were worried about progressive backlash. I think that was clearly a mistake.
There are a lot of voters that listen to Rogan and maybe don't have a lot of exposure to other forms of political coverage. You've got to be willing and able to go to where those people are, even if you don't like that place. It's the reason I think Newsom is actually making the right choice to be willing to talk to basically anyone.

(1,653 posts)that the account in that book is more CYA from the same folks that derailed the interview.
The premise of Rogan negotiating in bad faith doesn't make much sense on the surface. If he didn't want to bring her on the show he could have just ignored them. And if the Harris campaign wanted to be on the show, a quick jaunt to Austin would have been a half day trip, nothing they couldn't have worked around. It's a couple hour flight from Phoenix to Austin, for example.
We didn't run a great campaign, clearly, and there are staffers who had a hand in that who want to put the blame anywhere else they can. I frankly don't want any of them near our 2028 candidate.

(3,064 posts)The same guy who complained about Trump putting kids in cages in his first term went on to endorse Trump in 2024 anyway.
He knew better and did it anyway. Why would any rational person believe anything Rogan says anymore. Says there should social safety nets while simultaneously licking the boots of Elon Musk. I detest them both.
