Come On, Man

Kamala Harris is not likable. She never has been. She was an unpopular district attorney, prosecutor, and 2020 presidential candidate. Specifically, her 2024 presidential campaign lost momentum immediately after she finally started talking to anchors and reporters.

During interviews, Harris resembles a candidate who has never had to face accountability. In fact, she never has. Responding to questions about policy with "I was born in the middle class" only works for so long.

And that's with overly friendly interviewers like Stephen Colbert, Alex Cooper, and the cackling hens on The View. CBS's 60 Minutes was Harris' toughest interview on the campaign trail, a conversation that appeared to be edited in her favor.

Joe Rogan is hardly the modern-day Walter Cronkite. But he isn't signing up to fawn all over the vice president, either. He's not Howard Stern.

This is a rumor offered for effect. Team Kamala wants to make her look brave while minimizing risks as much as possible. The Fox News interview is one thing, but Rogan can't be spun as a political enemy -- not without making his audience even angrier. She can't even get through a "Call Her Daddy" podcast without fumbling -- so there's almost no chance they'll risk Rogan cutting her to pieces.
