Joe Rogan has suggested President Donald Trump is using ICE raids and fraud claims in Minnesota to distract people from the stalled release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

    I’m not interested in this fucking traitorous little gnome’s attempts to backpedal from fully supporting this fascism. There is no redemption arc for him.

        He’s entertaining to dumb people and useful to the very wealthiest. You don’t need to accuse Rogan of being clever, he got celebrity status and used it to get a job from the closest thing to a demon on earth.

    Joe still defends most of project 2025 so fuck him all the way. The media is just giving him props for almost nothing besides a few cherry picked comments.

    Joe sounds like he just woke up from a nap on a lot of things lately.

    Yeah, FFS, Joe. Of course he is. Aren’t you so fucking happy you helped to put him into office?

    He should have thought about that before platforming him to his millions of followers. Don’t surprised when someone YOU boosted gets elected and does stupid shit.

    Joe Rogan becoming an overdue antifascist would be a hilarious twist of history. Like I don’t think he’s ever going to be a leftist, but he seems to somehow be less brain dead than a lot of Americans, and fuck that’s sad.

    Until this asshole says the fucking words:

    “Trump is covering up the Epstein Files”

    Then he’s not criticizing Trump.

    This is what Joe Rogan and every hack psuedo-comedian podcaster piece of shit has been doing. They intentionally refuse to explicitly name drop Trump and blame him directly for literally everything he does.

    It gives these assholes plausible deniability to the dipshit MAGA crowd to say “I wasn’t criticizing dear leader! I was criticizing X cabinet member or person he appointed! Its there fault! Trump is still our infallible god!”

      Absolutely 100% right.

      The media was reporting that he thought ICE was being gestapo-like, and he didn’t say that at all.

      The way it was reported was legitimate journalistic negligence; this guy is a full-on reactionary.

        This guy was just smoking cigars with some douchebag and accusing all environmental protesters of being foreign agents and tools and traitors or some stupid shit like that.

        Seriously fuck this guy, I tried to like him a little, to appreciate him leading his flock to better places on a few issues, but his defense of say, the president’s bad faith lawsuits against the media, or attack on environmental protesters, show he’s just a cynical tool. He knows better, and those environmental protesters he would be agreeing with in other circumstances as it benefited him.

        I’m still convinced Elon Musk and other billionaires are sneaking him money under the table to be their not so covert PR guy.

          That’s probably not much of a secret. Rogan is getting paid by a lot of people for sure. Guy is a tool willing to help the worst people in the world.

          Go to bed with snakes, before long you will get bit on the dick though.

      “Some of his advisors have some really bad ideas…”

      It seems poor trump is just completely helpless in the face of these bad ideas.

        Schrödinger’s leadership role:

        When McDonalds begun increasing prices for corporate and shareholder greed, it was Obama or Hillary or Biden’s fault.

        When people Trump personally appointed, Trump personally talks to, and Trump acts based on the advisement of, do something catastrophic, Trump is just a victim of evil people who are tricking him. Also he’s never done anything wrong ever.

          I remember during Biden’s term I’d hear/read the dim bulbs claiming “Biden’s policies” were making everything unaffordable, etc.

          I’d ask them specifically which policies, exactly. By name. I’d ask them to give me the name of the bills he signed into law, the EOs that he signed, etc that supposedly led to this alleged state of things costing more.

          Crickets. Every fucking time.

          It’s just all vibes with the conservatives.
