Most Rogan listeners are already voting for Trump, but there are undoubtedly quite a number of people who barely pay attention to politics who also listen to Rogan's show. I think Trump endeared himself to many of them, unfortunately. Rogan sat there for 3 hours and licked Trump boots and didn't push back on any of his lies. He sat there and stroked Trump's mushroom on a lot of bull#### like Trump being a victim of "hoaxes", "unfair investigations", and "coordinated media attacks".

Also, I watched some of the highlights (or lowlights) and Trump sounded like an absolute clown and a dumbass. I wouldn’t worry about it.
People like you and I know better than to fall for Trump's facade and fake niceness. But tens of millions of Americans fall for it every day, and my worry is that many undecided voters who pay little to no attention to politics will fall for it.

This race is still a coin flip and it’s all about turnout now. If women and young people get out and vote in big numbers in the swing states, Harris wins.
I'm hoping you are correct. But Trump's Rogan interview undoubtedly increased his chances of winning this election. Harris should VERY seriously considering going on there to talk about her economic plans, explain why her proposals would help the American people, and contrast them to Trump's tax cuts for the rich and new tariffs making things more expensive for the middle class and poor. And of course, talk about Trump's assault on women's reproductive rights. When the border is brought up, she needs to keep mentioning the very strong border bill that Trump blocked.
