Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

I think it says a lot that this doesn't really move the needle about my opinion of either of them at this point...

Thank god Joe is too stupid to understand endorsing RFK will work against Trump.

I welcome his endorsement and hope he has RFK on his show 10 times before the election.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

Or he realizes that and he is a coward.

RFK Jr. and Joe Rogan are a form of ultra crank magnetism. I think if RFK picked Rogan for VP, the country would implode from an integer overflow of Weird-Stupidity.

Joe Rogan should spend more time riding on public transportation. He'd be sure to find other people who make sense to him. They'll be the ones who are walking around talking loudly at other passengers.

Who gives a fuck what this guy thinks.

It's because their brain worms are communicating telepathically.

Whoaaa whoa now, I like that game. Let's not compare the two. The Mind Flayers at least LIKE brains instead of totally lacking them.

As the symbol glows, power courses through them. Stupidity.

Yeah I mean, he would

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 months ago

I wonder if Joe's use of deworming medication makes him feel like he and RFK Jr. are kindred numbnuts.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Pretty much says it all right there.

[–] [email protected] 119 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I can't wait for the tide to turn against Joe Rogan and he becomes another has-been. He's done way too much damage on a lot of important issues.

[–] [email protected] 71 points 3 months ago (5 children)

I don't understand how more people don't see this. It drives me insane. "Did you watch the interview with Joe Rog-" "NO!!!"

I'm surprised anything makes sense to this guy.

[–] [email protected] 136 points 3 months ago (10 children)

the only politician rogan understands is the one who has literal brain worms

[–] [email protected] 32 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Rogan is what happens when the barbarian doesn't have a miniature giant space hamster to whisper common sense into his ear.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

So like, just your ordinary, run-of-the-mill space hamster then?

I think of this every time I read what Joe's doing

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

I love this, why have I not seen this before?

You explain to meat!

Joe have rocks in gut but Joe like trt too much to stop

They probably relate because they both have brain worms

Signs your ideology might lack internal consistency: you cannot make sense of anything unless it is completely harpic.

I 100% believe him on that

Trump lost Joe Rogan bahaha

[–] [email protected] 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Spoiler candidates are mostly bad news for Democrats, but I can't imagine many people who would be swayed by a Joe Rogan endorsement would have voted (D} anyway.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

That's why this move is weird to me. I assume Rogan would want Trump to win much more than Harris, but endorsing RFK Jr does nothing but convince his listeners (who are largely Trump voters) to peel off from Trump. The conservative ploy with RFK is not going to work out how they want it to.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The way polling is going, RFK seems to be spoiling Trump, not Harris 🤭

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

Didn't trump have a talk with brainworms like a month back? I vaguely remember that a poll showed rfk stealing more from Trump.
