“I really believe that if Michelle Obama runs, she wins,” Rogan said on his podcast to comedian Tim Dilllon “She’s intelligent, she’s articulate, she’s the wife of the best president that we have had in our lifetime in terms of like a representative of intelligent, articulate people .” The only thing that would stop her [Michelle Obama] is if she bought into some of these policies that are destroying businesses in America that make people scared,” he added.
In the interview, Rogan said that he predicts that Vice President Kamala Harris would be Obama’s running mate in a presidential election. “They’re going to bring Harris. Michelle Obama and Harris. Harris comes back as the vice president. Michelle Obama’s the president. We get a double dose of diversity,” Rogan said.
“They’ll win,” Dillon said. “And who’s on the Republican side? DeSantis?”
“Trump and DeSantis,” Rogan responded. “They have to make a super team. It’s the only way they win.”
The operative phrase is "a representative of intelligent, articulate people." I thought Obama was a terrible Executive who was full of bad ideas that were antithetical to America, he created racial animosity where none existed previously, he signed Obamacare, his chief regret was that he didn't wreck the 2nd Amendment more, and...well...he's a dope.
But Obama could sell. He was a great salesman. And the "intelligencia" who prefer wordsmiths over doers like Trump, fell head over heels for him. And like a millionaire who summits Everest via Sherpas carrying him to the top, Obama had the MSM and Hollywood to support him every step along the way..
I don't read Rogan as being a supporter Michelle's candidacy (though I suspect he harbors respect for Barack, and clearly he thinks there's intelligence somewhere in that couple) as much as saying that she and Kamala would be tough to beat in the popularity contest that is the Presidential Election.
