Kamala Harris's Staff Has New Excuses for Not Appearing on Joe Rogan

They made the right call. She is an idiot with no internal life. She would have melted down after spitting out her talking points for a half an hour. She would have short-circuited like those androids on Star Trek when Kirk said, "Everything I say is a lie. Am I lying now?"

But the Kamala team can't admit that. They just keep spamming out new excuses.

A new report claims that young, progressive staffers within Kamala Harris's campaign influenced the vice president's decision to decline an appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast, an opportunity her opponent, Donald Trump, seized to appeal to millions of Rogan's listeners. The Financial Times reports that a faction of Harris's staff worried about potential backlash from the vice president's progressive base, who may view Rogan's platform as a mismatch with their values.

The episode highlighted the divide within Harris's campaign, raising questions about whether the vice president's messaging is becoming captive to what some critics call "woke" influences. According to Jennifer Palmieri, a senior adviser to Harris's husband Doug Emhoff, concerns arose internally about how the optics of a Rogan appearance might alienate progressive supporters.


...

Critics have pointed out that declining the interview could reflect a broader trend of institutions increasingly dominated by progressive ideology, often foregoing engagement with audiences perceived as non-aligned with "woke" culture. As campaigns continue to navigate a polarized media environment, Harris's decision may serve as a cautionary tale about the costs of yielding to internal divisions at the expense of broader outreach.


Her other dumb bunny advisors say it was instead a scheduling conflict:

Jennifer Palmieri @jmpalmieri

I messed this up...important background should have included here. As campaign said in real time, VP didn't appear on Rogan because of schedule (hard to get to TX twice in a 107 day campaign).

Regardless of any blowback, the campaign had made decision to pursue the interview and the Vice President was prepared to do it.

Stephanie Cutter @stefcutter

This is 100% accurate. Decision was made to do Joe Rogan, if we could work the schedule out. Unfortunately, we couldn't make it work the one time we were in TX, and as JP says below, hard to get to TX twice in a 107 day campaign -- means a whole day outside of BG states.

John Ekdahl calls this Hillary Clinton 2.0, referring to Hillary's refusal to visit Wisconsin in 2016.

But I don't think Kamala had anything to win on Rogan.

Rogan revealed that even while they were negotiating, Kamala's team laid down a list of topics he wasn't allowed to talk about -- including her support for legalization of marijuana.

Not only is that a contentious issue that further underlines her identity as a woke warrior, Kamala didn't want to be asked about jailing thousands of people for simple marijuana position, especially given her later admission - -really a brag to connect with younger voters -- that she smokes pot her self.
