2024 Presidential Race

[BowlBrother85]

As you know, the real issue is that Harris never wanted to do that interview. She needed a way out of doing it without just flat-out refusing to do it.

Why did she need an excuse? Couldn't she just politely decline the interview? Is Rogan's podcast really that big a deal?

 

[SamRebel35]

The question is whether or not Harris knew he wouldn't agree to an hr long interview. His style is long form interview. An hr is long form. You can say he is not doing it because it's not 3 hours, but I have no idea why she would know that was a deal-breaker for him going into the stipulation.

Has any presidential candidate ever done an hour long interview on turf that isn't friendly?

They know that outside the confines of mainstream media, they should expect fair treatment rather than profusely preferential treatment. If they didn't know, they should have. You aren't going to get Joe Rogan to set the terms for Trump, but then turn around and allow Kamala to set her own terms.

In the sense that she would gain nothing by doing the interview, no it's not a big deal. But yeah, it's one of the most listened to pods on the planet. He gets more ears than any TV channel gets eyes.

 

[hndog609]

What?

His style is to get the interview.

Are you familiar with his podcast? His entire premise is having the long form unscripted conversation. There is (to my knowledge) nothing in the ever of his podcast that would have him agree to fly to meet someone for a 1 hour* "interview".

*It would not surprise me in the least if even that time wasn't jacked up. You did hear about the Behr interview, right?

Here’s the awkward moment Kamala Harris’ aides shut down Fox News interview with Bret Baier

Fox News anchor Bret Baier recounted the awkward moment that cut his interview with Kamala Harris short.

nypost.com

Joe doesn't need jack from Kamala. Trump came on and there's currently 37M views just on Youtube. That's been seen as at least "mostly" a benefit for Trump with that audience. If she's not interested in taking that on so be it but any sort of "Well, he's the one not interested." just doesn't work.

Why do you think I'm mad? This is your move and you're saying "sick burn?"

Stay angry vote Harris.

 

[SamRebel35]

Why did she need an excuse? Couldn't she just politely decline the interview? Is Rogan's podcast really that big a deal?

Yes. 37 million youtube views in a few days. Doesn't include the Spotify numbers. That's likely more than one quarter of the potential main candidate voters.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Kissing a black child makes him a sicko?

Racist imo.

 

[Vol423]

Stay angry vote Harris.

He reportedly already voted. I assume he voted for Harris.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Why should I be shocked that you quoted a source with inaccurate info? I live in AZ and have seen no news source reporting that this guy is a Republican. He appears to be homeless (although I haven't seen that specifically reported either). He has an extensive history of arrests in the Phoenix, AZ area. He started a fire in one US Post Office mailbox at 12:40am in the morning, not multiple designated ballot drop-boxes as claimed in your quoted tweet. He claims it was not politically motivated. His says his motive was that he wanted to be arrested.

So now the democrats CARE about people setting stuff on fire?

 

[dovervolz]

He can suggest all he wants. The pesky constitution and BoRs makes his suggestion a non starter.

Since when do the dems care about the constitution?

Has any presidential candidate ever done an hour long interview on turf that isn't friendly?

If it got to the point where one side or the other was rejecting the requirements of the other, it wasn't the initial conversation.

Its not like Joe and Kamala were the ones trying to hash out the details and Joe got offended when Kamala said he needed to go to wherever she was at that moment. Their people were likely talking for a while before it got to the point of rejection.

I don't watch nearly as many of his shows as I used to, but they have always been a "safe space" type of conversation. many time drinking beers, or lighting up; getting distracted by some piece of memorabilia Joe has lying around, talking about past interviewees. New location and different format could have been part of the issue for rejection. *I haven't see the one with Trump to know if Joe changed anything for Trump*. I would never call it hard hitting journalism, or anything close, but he would ask questions, or bring up alternate theories and ask people to defend or explain their stances. so maybe the location was Kamala trying to take back some control.

could also be something as lame as contract agreements with various groups, or marketers. Like Joe is only paid if the interview happens in Big Box Name Studio (wherever he is). It could have been prior engagements, Kamala obviously has a lot going on, and Joe does stuff too. and they just never could get the location to work because one or the other had to be somewhere else right after or before, and it literally couldn't be worked out.

Well, he's not a reporter, so, I'm not sure why you keep using this "interview" word like he's going to publish it after editing. Again, he's free form... he asks a question then goes on a 10 minute discussion with multiple tangents. Then posts without editing in is raw form.

Her campaign is scared to put her in an environment where they don't know what's coming next. And second, the whole "the mountain must come to Moses" thing is stupid. You and I both know they can control the process if they control the location.

Say what you want about Trump, he's not afraid to do any interview. After her disasters with even so called "friendly" networks like CNN, they don't want her in any position where she's going to have to think on her feet.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Since when do the dems care about the constitution?

Only when it suits their purposes.
Not when they want to unilaterally forgive billions in student debt without Congressional approval though

Kamala isn't capable of having an intelligent off-the-cuff conversation. That was the problem.

Imagine having the peanuts to complain about Joe Rogan with exactly zero experience watching a Joe Rogan interview.

She didn't need an excuse to decline the interview.

Trump backs out of "60 Minutes" election special; Kamala Harris to be interviewed

Vice President Kamala Harris will be featured by "60 Minutes" on Monday, Oct. 7 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Former President Donald Trump has declined to participate, despite previously indicating otherwise.

..... just like Trump didn't need an excuse to back out of his 60 Minutes interview.

 

[hog88]

That's not his style and you know that.

But he should do it.

Ok? Not sure what your point is.

 

[LouderVol]

I agree that was the real issue. just like Trump was afraid to debate Harris again

but this conversation was about why it was an issue to do it elsewhere.

 

[McDad]

As you know, the real issue is that Harris never wanted to do that interview. She needed a way out of doing it without just flat-out refusing to do it.

...And I don't see how we can possibly know that, either. We can make a lot of assumptions but we don't really know the dynamics of the situation.

 

[McDad]

Since when do the dems care about the constitution?

Trump is making the suggestion. He's an R.

 

[VOLS INC.]

Kamala isn't capable of having an intelligent off-the-cuff conversation. That was the problem.

Everyone knows how this would go based on her recent interviews.

Joe thanks her for agreeing to the show. Kamala responds “Well you know Joe. I’m from a middle class family. And Donald Trump has been running for office for 10 years. You know what I’m saying Joe (she then laughs for like 15 seconds). And Joe. Let me be clear. Donald Trump is a threat to our democracy and we need to move forward”.


Every question posed to her for the entire interview will follow that format.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Ok? Not sure what your point is.

The only people who would complain about something this trite, are people who have already made up their minds to dislike her anyway.

After seeing how 60 Minutes edits „interviews“; I agree he doesn’t need any excuses. He would have to be crazy to go in for one
