I remember when Bill Maher interviewed Steve Bannon and Maher said Republicans are popular because they are willing to speak on programs like that, meaning even in front of hostile audiences. I think Trump on Rogan was great. It was a bit alarming that he thought there could be life on Mars, but other than that, it was good. When he did Lex Fridman, it was full political speech, but I think he was more natural on Rogan.

I haven't noticed my life change much during the last four presidents we've had in USA. While I voted Democrat, I don't really care who wins in the end since they're all puppets, imo.

I believe a few democrats went on Joe Rogan last election, such as Bernie Sanders. If I remember correctly, Joe Rogan was in favor of Bernie Sanders and said he'd vote for him. The standard view many seem to have on the left is that Rogan is a grifter (or supporter of grifters) on the right wing. But that doesn't invalidate the fact that he and many of his viewers supported one of the most left wing presidential candidates in US history, simply because Bernie used the strategy of talking about things that matter.

There is a lot of merit to Kamala showing up. Particularly if people on the right think that simply by showing up means she's not as elitist and arrogant as they might think she is.

I must admit: I do have some respect for Trump taking every possible risk to win this.

Harris is too tight-passive.

Well... looks like Trump won. Will be interesting to see what the spin is tomorrow.

Now I won't see anymore political ads during NFL commercials.
