Joe Rogan is not a guy to mince words and fired back when the Kamala Harris campaign implied he purposefully "f***ed" up interview negotiations with the cackling special ed vice president in favor of then-candidate Donald Trump.
Rogan claimed that it seems like they're "trying to cover their ass."
In January, excerpts of the book "Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House" by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes detailed the Harris campaign’s failure to book an interview for then-Vice President Kamala Harris on "The Joe Rogan Experience" before the 2024 election.
In the excerpt, her campaign argued Rogan’s team made several difficult demands, including a refusal to meet on Oct. 25 because it was Rogan’s "personal day." The Harris campaign later alleged that they found out Rogan had sat down with Trump on that same day despite refusing to meet with Harris.
Rogan denied this accusation on his podcast Wednesday, saying the real problem was that Harris "never committed" to his show, which makes sense to anyone with a brain who knows that for her to do so would mean instant political suicide.
"We have all the receipts, by the way," Rogan said. "I have a whole list of conversations that took place. They never said she was going to do it. This whole idea that we f***ed her over and we f***ed her over for Trump — incorrect, just not true."

Again, anyone who listens to Rogan's podcast knows he would have been delighted to have her in front of him to ask her questions.
Perhaps the problem was with the scheduling and the "passage of time." Remember how Kamala speaks to the passage of time when she appeared on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert::
"The significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time... there is such great significance to the moment we are in and our ability to recognize it. Because we're in it."
This was likely the scheduling problem due to the confusion about how the passage of time is, well, time passing that we can no longer have back as it passed and is gone to the history of time.
Rogan also called out Lyin' Harris campaign for implying he was "difficult to deal with" based on his demand to do the interview at his Austin, Texas studio. Joe pointed out the campaign itself had weird demands.
"We were super easy. But also, it’s got to be the actual real show. It shouldn’t be some fake version where I’m sitting in a conference room," Rogan said.
He added, "Oh, also, they wanted a stenographer in the room. They wanted staff in the room. Trump was just in here by himself. Just me, him and Jamie. That’s it. For three hours. They wanted to do everything. They wanted it very controlled, and they were really concerned that [the podcast] wasn’t going to be edited. So I don’t think they ever really were sure they wanted to do it."
Rogan wondered whether this was also done in reaction to now-President Trump's three-hour interview with him going viral in the weeks before the election.
"I think it’s someone trying to cover their ass for the fact that she never did it, and if she did do it, it might have had a positive effect," Rogan said. "[If] her and I had a good time, we got along great, and she won over ‘young male vote,’ things could have been different. So this guy’s probably trying to cover his ass."
Rogan did a last minute endorsement of Trump right before the election because he would have looked foolish endorsing an idiot.
