In a recent development, Joe Rogan has publicly refuted claims made by Kamala Harris's campaign regarding her absence from his podcast. The allegations surfaced in the book "Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House," authored by Jonathan Allen and Ami Parnes. According to the book, Harris's team faced challenges in arranging her appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience," including scheduling conflicts with a campaign event in Houston.
Rogan addressed these claims on his podcast, stating, “This whole idea that we fucked her over and we fucked her over for Trump — incorrect, just not true.” He further clarified that Donald Trump's appearance was easily arranged and that Harris's team never committed to participating in the show. Rogan also denied that any representative from Harris's campaign visited his studio for a set walk-through.
A video clip of Rogan discussing this issue was shared on social media, where he confirmed that Harris's team did not make efforts to schedule an appearance. He stated they falsely claimed he was unavailable and pretended to have sent someone to view his set.
Rogan retweeted this confirmation, emphasizing the inaccuracies in the narrative presented by Harris's campaign. While appearing on Rogan’s podcast might not have guaranteed electoral success for Harris, some believe that avoiding it may have negatively impacted her chances.
