Summary

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

Harrisā€™ team carefully planned a trip to Texas to align with Roganā€™s terms, only to be told he was unavailableā€”only for Trump to secure an interview that same day.

The book claims Elon Musk and UFC CEO Dana White influenced Roganā€™s decision.

Harrisā€™ 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.
