Joe Rogan Makes Presidential Endorsement (Spoiler Alert: RFK Jr)
Newsweek ^ | 08/08/2024 | Andrew Stanton

Posted on 08/08/2024 3:04:28 PM PDT by Drew68

Joe Rogan has made his endorsement in the presidential race, announcing he is supporting independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

"I am a fan. He's the only one to make sense to me. He's the only one that doesn't attack people. He attacks actions and ideas, but he's much more reasonable and intelligent," Rogan said during an episode of his podcast.

Kennedy is running as an independent challenger to former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. He has sought to appeal to centrist voters who may be disillusioned by the policies of the Democratic and Republican parties.

Polls show that he faces an uphill battle to victory in November, as he is not even on the ballot in some states. But he could still play a pivotal role in the election if he siphons off enough voters from either candidate to give the opponent an advantage in the key swing states. Some polls suggest Kennedy may be more of a threat to Trump than to Harris.

Newsweek reached out to Kennedy's campaign for comment via email.

Whether you agree with part of RFK Jr’s agenda or not, the
fact is, he will never be elected president.

Further, his other not talked about agenda items would make
our colon go spastic.

Rogan is hurting the very issues he probably cares about the
most, because Joking Joe sure isn’t going to implement RFK’s
agenda on these matters.

Trump would be more likely to, the most decent ones.

Kind of disappointed in Joe Rogan.

Yep. In essence a safe “endorsement” you can try to split tue middle and act like a rebel or something.

Rogan allows his guests to speak, which puts him miles ahead of 99% of media interviewers.

But he himself is a pothead, and it shows.

Rogan is typical of transplants who move to Texas. He supported Bernie in the past as well. This is why another reason Texas is drifting purple because of cut and runners who flee their failed areas. Rogan fled California to destroy Texas. Musk and the rest of his crew are part of that purple army.

He can always write in RFK Jr., but write ins don’t usually get elected.

Rogan is a liberal who just happens to be anti vax and when leftys started going after him he ran to conservatives to protect him. He’s never been a Trump guy so this isn’t surprising.

But he did pretty much ride the MAGA/alt-right coattails to fame and fortune, even if it was, as it turns out, totally performative.

"I didn’t see who he endorsed in 2016 but I don’t know what audience he had back then, if any."

I doubt it was Trump that far back.

Joe should put down the blunt, it's making him lose brain cells he desperately needs. The choice is between Trump and Kamala. RFK is nothing but a distraction.

So Mr. Rogan has announced publicly his tacit support of the Harris/Walz ticket by supporting an outlying politician who cannot possibly win. He must know this.

During the primaries that's fine. In the general, a wise person, an intelligent person who is concerned about the survival of our Republic must realize that he must put his emotions aside and not aid the enemy hellbent on the destruction of our Republic.

It's a shameful act that you've done, Mr. Rogan. Shameful.

if this was really the case, the dems wouldn’t be trying to keep RFK Jr off the ballots. polls are generally meaningless and give the result that those paying for them want. Look at peoples actions, don’t listen to their words

It's a safe way to oppose Harris.

It doesn't offend the left (because he didn't endorse Trump), yet also maintain his anti-establishment cred with conservative listeners (because he didn't endorse Harris).
