The US presidential elections have been a popular topic on the internet for several months. Following the announcement of the election results, the political scene continues to be dynamic. Recently, popular UFC commentator Joe Rogan took to his social media platforms to indirectly mock former Vice President Kamala Harris.
A few days ago, Donald Trump was elected President of the United States for a second consecutive term. Following this significant political event, a wave of memes directed at his opponent, Kamala Harris, flooded social media platforms. One prominent figure in this discussion, Joe Rogan, contributed by sharing a particularly humorous meme that subtly mocked the Democratic candidate.
Ahead of the elections, several reports suggested that Harris would appear on the podcast show hosted by Rogan. However, that appearance did not happen for various reasons. Following this, Rogan seemed to lean towards Trump in the context of the presidential elections. Just a few hours before voting began, Rogan even publicly endorsed the Republican presidential candidate, which went viral.

Several prominent individuals who support Trump have stated that Rogan’s endorsement significantly influenced the election results. UFC CEO Dana White, in particular, expressed his gratitude to the popular podcaster for supporting Trump. Additionally, Rogan’s recent comment about Harris served to poke fun at her for declining to appear on his podcast.
Why did Kamala Harris didn’t appear on the Joe Rogan Experience?
UFC commentator Joe Rogan hosts one of the most popular podcast shows in the world. Rogan often engages in deeper conversations with his guests, getting to know them better during the episodes. This was also true for Kamala Harris, as Rogan expressed curiosity about her policies and speeches. Thus, it prompted him to seek a conversation with her.
His proposals were consistently declined despite Rogan expressing interest in conversing with the vice president multiple times. However, after learning about Trump’s appearance on the show, Harris appeared interested in joining him for an episode. Nevertheless, due to certain demands from the former VP’s side, Rogan ultimately decided not to proceed with that episode.
I literally gave them an open invitation. I said anytime. I said, if she’s done at 10 o’clock. We’ll come back here at 10 o’clock. I’ll do it 9 in the morning. I’ll do it 10 pm. I’ll do it in midnight…. She actually reached out when she (Kamala Harris) found out, he (Donald Trump) was coming on… The thing is you can’t if I go somewhere then there’s going to be other people in the room and they want the control of a lot of things.

A majority of the general public has criticized Harris’ public appearances, claiming that she often presents baseless arguments. Additionally, she relies on a team to manage her speeches and statements. Rogan wanted to have a one-on-one conversation with her, but they did not agree to it. As a result, Harris was absent from the Joe Rogan Experience.
