(RedState) As RedState reported earlier, podcast legend Joe Rogan recently shed light on what happened behind the scenes as his camp tried to make an interview with then-Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris happen shortly before Election Day, only to have her back out due to an alleged “scheduling” conflict.
Among the demands the Harris campaign made was for Rogan to travel to where she was at the time and to limit the interview to an hour. They also wanted him not to ask her about marijuana legalization and throwing people in jail for pot-related offenses, the latter of which she did when she was San Francisco’s District Attorney in the early 2000s.
While Rogan made clear he would have been up for just about anything in order to get her on his show, one thing he wouldn’t agree to do in addition to not traveling to conduct the show on her turf was edits, which he said was another thing her campaign asked about.
As luck would have it, Rogan’s recent revelations about the back and forth between the two camps regarding the terms wasn’t the only juicy tidbit shared this week about Harris’ disastrous decision to decline an interview with America’s most popular podcaster.
According to Clintonista Jennifer Palmieri, who is a senior advisor to Harris’ husband, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, the truth of the matter was that Harris didn’t want to appear on Rogan’s show because she was worried that it would offend the woke left:
Perhaps with the thought in mind that letting that information slip out makes Harris look even more foolish in retrospect, Palmieri is already trying to backtrack on the Twitter/X machine, posting this earlier:
Regardless of any blowback, the campaign had made decision to pursue the interview and the Vice President was prepared to do it. 2/2
