I just don't understand how so many people can say with a plain face "I just didn't think he would do again exactly what he did the first time he was president."
I mean, I do believe that Joe Rogan is both ignorant and stupid, so…
Lot's of YouTubers play stupid, so that they get better engagement with their public, like saying some wrong things like it was a mishap gives you comments, being a bit dumbish makes people think they can outsmart you etc etc. it's a monetary strategy. IMO.
I call it this as "The Voter's Wager", essentially they believe less bad things will happen than promised, and more good things, because people are too confident in the "politicians just say things sometimes they don't mean".
I was a little shocked that they used Project 2025 so thoroughly, I though they'd just pull a few key things and try them out at first. Instead they do like half of it in 6 months. It's astonishing for people on both sides, it's definitely not what we're used to. Obama had 8 years and tons of political capital and only got a couple signature initiatives done, nothing like Trump's dozens and dozens.
The wealthy are in favor of Project 2025, so there is no real opposition to it. The wealthy did not want healthcare reform, so it had to be fought for tooth and nail only to end up with a compromise of handing tax money directly to insurance companies.
If that were true, and I don't believe it is, then you are a moron.
The last bit is definitely true.
Rogan is a fucking tooool who enabled Trump 1 & 2.
He's just mirroring what his user base is thinking. We might be giving him too much credit with changing people's minds: he just says what his listeners want to hear.
In 2024, it was all about how Trump was going to restore American men to greatness and power against the encroaching evil of criminal immigrants, feminists, and trans drag queens (???)
Now the same American men have realized that's a bad look and he's just providing the excuse for why it was okay to support this stuff.
We might be giving him too much credit with changing people’s minds: he just says what his listeners want to hear.
That's from 2016 btw
he just says what his listeners want to hear.
This has literally always been his schtick. He also constantly agrees with everything his guest say even when they completely contradict each other.
He's got no actual opinions on anything and never has.
Joe, you have a large platform, and Fuck You money, and can say or do anything that you choose. You could turn your entire listening base back to the light if you felt like it.
Nice of you to finally acknowledge reality, but you've got a lot more heavy lifting to do. You're not the enemy of my enemy just yet.
Not quite.
Unidentified masked armed thugs snatching people off the street without due process and shipping them off to gulag (sometimes in a completely unrelated country) is wrong even if the people are criminals.
Criminals also have rights worth protecting.
Bro really is that dumb, huh?
Why is anyone still listening to this moron?
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

Cue the very next episode where Joe will be spending 300x as much time berating the left because he saw a leftist do something stupid in an AI video with PS2 graphics.
Ignorance of the law isn't a defense, ignorance of obvious reality shouldn't be either. He's complicit and he knows it.
Joe meant to say hes a dipshit who got conned twice by the same conman lol
Do you think they can tell the difference when they only understand moral panics?
He really needs de-platformed like Alex Jones. Same human sewage machine.
They thought that meal team six would have balls to go after someone who might fight back?
What a useful idiot.
For anyone not following things like elephant graveyard on YouTube, this shit is a face saving attempt for them.
Both him and Duncan Trussel are getting hammered by parts of their audiences for not only full throated support of Trump, but actually using their platforms to boost the shit. Same with Theo Von and a few of these other fucking clowns.
Duncan Trussel is famously the person in a space suit telling Rogan people are going to manipulate and use him. This shit is clownshoes.
Poor, poor, Joe Rogan. Reality has eluded him.
Not that we didn’t know this already, but anybody that says this kind of shit immediately loses all credibility. It was 100% obviously bullshit when they said it. Just like getting Mexico to pay for the wall. Or Trump having a healthcare plan. It was all 100% bullshit.
How did so many people get fooled by him when he'd already been president and was just like this for four years‽
YOU HELPED ENABLE THIS, YOU DUMB FUCK.
I hope Joe is held accountable in the trials to come as well.
Fell For It Again award
The really fucking stupid thing about his reasoning quoted there is that there’s already a fuckton of legislation like RICO to take down gangs. You don’t need ICE for that, just get the police to their job.
