The Trump interview on the “Joe Rogan Experience” has gotten over 37 million views on YouTube. It got about 10 million views just between Friday night and Saturday morning.

It was huge, and it dominated the news cycle. A lot of people loved it because it was just Rogan and Trump talking for three hours. It was honest and open, and a look into the real person that a debate or a five-minute interview doesn’t give you.
It also made the fact that Kamala Harris hadn’t done it all the more stark. Trump noted that she would probably end up “laying on the floor comatose” if she tried, which was funny. There had been reports that she didn’t want to do it without “restrictions.”

Now Joe Rogan is talking about the restrictions and why her doing the show hasn’t come off so far.
Also, for the record the Harris campaign has not passed on doing the podcast. 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…

Also, for the record the Harris campaign has not passed on doing the podcast. 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. I really hope we can make it happen.

So basically, they want him to change how he does his show and fit it to her convenience, making it much shorter so she doesn’t have to do what Trump did for three hours. Likely because she couldn’t possibly do three hours. So how would it be the same? That’s ridiculous. Her restrictions are an admission that she can’t handle what Trump can. If you can’t even do three hours with Rogan, how can you expect to do the job as president?
The real problem is that three hours would reveal what a fake person she is, and she knows it.
One Harris supporter account tried to argue Rogan was being a “diva.”
genuinely dude she is the Vice President of the United States and you are a podcaster. this is absolute diva behavior https://t.co/WZhrz9vF0Z

Actually, she’s the one being the diva here. Not a good look to have her supporters attack Rogan. And she needs Rogan — he doesn’t need her. She’s the one up a creek without a paddle at this point, scrambling for votes. She doesn’t want to have to have such a conversation where she might be put on the spot.
People weighed in with most telling Rogan to “let her walk.”

Hour 2 would have been a meltdown.
I just literally can’t even imagine what hour 3 would be.

Then Rogan also noted something else that was troubling — that there had been a problem when people went to YouTube trying to search for the Trump podcast. So he posted it on X.

What was happening was that if you searched “Rogan Trump,” the episode wasn’t coming up. What came up were clips or comments from others about the show, but not the show itself. You had to go directly to the Joe Rogan experience page to find it. Despite what some thought might be censorship, it still got over 37 million views, which shows how significant it can be.
But at this point — as with so many other things in Harris’ campaign — it looks like she’s blown the opportunity.
