Rogan: It's Scary How Many Democrats Are Willing To Set These Precedents To Go After Trump
RealClear Politics ^ | 5 Jun, 2024 | Tim Hains

During a conversation with "Kill Tony" comedian Tony Hinchcliffe on Wednesday, podcast host Joe Rogan discussed his view of the political ramifications of the prosecution of Donald Trump.

"What's scary is how many Democrats are willing to allow this kind of stuff to happen. A lot of them are aware of it," Rogan said. "Especially if you wanted to look at past presidents with the same scrutiny... Imagine if, when Obama got into office, he decided to prosecute Dick Cheney and George Bush for crimes against humanity... Even what Obama did -- during the administration, they dropped a drone on a US citizen. No trial, no nothing. Boom."

"Trump didn't even go for Obama. He didn't go for Hillary. He could have tried them for things. Especially Hillary with the whole email thing, the deleting the emails."

"They're all crazy. That's what they don't want you to know. It's like sluts that are always talking bad about other girls for being sluts," he quipped.

"They don't even realize they're setting a precedent, and when another guy gets in office that's a Republican, you've got real problems now, kids. If the elections are real, that's how it usually goes."

"If you change the way people are allowed to go after political candidates, and you change the way you're allowed to silence and imprison your candidates, then we're like Mexico. We're just not assassinating people yet. We're like a third-world country. We're like a banana republic," Rogan said.

TONY HINCHCLIFFE: I think Trump just puts the fear of God into these people [leading China and Russia] a little bit. I think he puts the fear of God into them because they play by the rules. They read our news. If they glance at our news, it looks like we have a crazy...

> when Trump gets into office he needs to JAILn all the dems who went after repubs.

Then get to the “trial” after 7 years or so.

The Leftists don’t care.

They’ll never relinquish power and the Republicans will never stand up to them.

In their minds, they’ve achieved their goal...one party rule.

Are there enough helicopters?

I could transport 33 fully equipped paratroopers on my Chinook which left plenty of standing room. Throw out the chutes and the infantry gear and I could probably put 70 or more in that thing. It could be very productive in the right hands.

As long as they don’t have a billion dollar biz in NY and donate millions to pols coffers, they’re ok. The deciding factor is if they denounce the D brand.

“Trump did NOT go after Hillary and he should have.”

That one act would been a warning to others, but he blew it off.

The rats ain't worried about the future, being caught up in their own legal traps and all.. That's what all the "new voters" are about.

The invasion will put the rats in charge once and for all.! Well, for at least as long as the "USA" last.. Probably won't be more then a few years.

Ha, ha! Good one! Boy, the standards for comments have really changed on FR. I got reprimanded quite awhile back for saying ‘Where’s Chris Kyle when you need him?’

no no no no NO! can’t just throw them from helicopters. the humane thing would be to supply rope, make a large loop...and let them make their own decision on what to do about it. after all, choice is an important concept to these fine, outstanding...ok, choice is important.

I say pardon Biden and Obama, and crucify everybody involved with the witch hunt and cover-ups since 2016. All the way down to the doorman. These were real crimes against the country, not a book keeping issue.

I don’t know what they are afraid of. Republicans never return the partisanship the way democrats do.

Welcome to the party Joe. I am going to be shocked is Trump is allowed to win for the 3rd time; and will be shocked if anyone other than a communist puppet wins again.

Knowing what we do now about Obama's true nature, who doesn't believe that Obama was up to his ears in the selling of his Senate seat that Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich took the fall for?

Just look at how Obama benefited from the fallout from that scandal. Obama's rival Chicago power-broker Jesse Jackson got taken down when his son Jesse Jackson Jr became entangled in the Senate Seat scandal. Jackson is a Baptist minister and protégé of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. who led the peaceful civil disobedience wing of the Black Power movement.

Obama was aligned with the Louis Farrakhan Muslim activist wing of the Black Power movement and had little regard for Jackson. With Jackson out of the picture, Obama elevated the stature of Al Sharpton, who was a radical activist Baptist minister with a checkered past.

Neutering Jackson and elevating Sharpton went a long way towards consolidating Obama's influence in the African-American community.

What would happen if an aggressive Republican prosecutor decided to take another look at what happened with Obama's Senate seat in 2009?
