Current Affairs 2024 POTUS race

[Walken]

Like Fox News, right? Sure they get punished when they flat out lie about things like Dominion…But showing clips out of context and twisting words, they do all the time. Something like this Biden clip, or similarly a Trump comment on the left wing outlets…they intentionally broadcast things out of context all the time to fit their narrative, and they don’t care that it’s a false representation.

I’m not sure why you can’t still hate Rogan and acknowledge his producer did the right thing. Multiple things can be true at once.

Fox news do have stricter regulation than rogan, its whey they had to pay out 790 mill for the dominion lies and rightly so. It's a shame rogan doesn't have to comply to same regs, in fact his profits go up with his lies.

No problem saying rogan is a lying moron and his producer did a fine job correcting rogans lies, both things can certainly be true.

well for a start he was telling Biden "he's done" for the airport stuff, when he finds out it's Trump, there's no call that he's done. It's just "haha, well he misspoke".
It's absolute garbage, him getting stoned with space Karen while millions watched on was a low point in human evolution.

How long do you think that Producer keeps his job?

Lol. That’s a great question. Probably gone already

Rogan is as liable as Fox News in an open-and-shut defamation case. His pockets aren't as deep and his audience isn't as large, so he isn't as attractive a target for expensive litigation.

You can get a judgment against Alex Jones for that kind of money, sure, but you'll never recover anything resembling the amount of the judgment thanks to the bankruptcy code. It makes for a splashy headline, but that's it.

I don’t listen to Rogan but I see a lot of his clips pop up on Twitter/Youtube and his producer quite regularly calls him out when he has said a clear lie.

His pockets aren’t as deep but if his reported net worth is anywhere close to accurate then he’s got about $200mil in assets. As far as listeners go, he’s got 11million subs and apparently Fox News prime time is about 1mil. So I’m not sure your comment regarding audience holds water.

Truly shocking to think that Fear Factor was actually the intellectual high water mark of Joe Rogan’s career.

Crazy fact I learned scrolling on Reddit this morning. Joe Biden was born closer to Abraham Lincoln’s presidency (77 years) than his own (78 years).

And people say the Dems need to find a younger candidate, lol.

don't believe the polls or approval ratings
/Dems currently have the advantage in turnout
//But Trump can win because Biden really f-ed up planting his lips firmly on Bibi's backside
///He should have known better given that he ran and won against a corrupt @#$hole who cares about nothing but himself
////Even bleepin Isreal hates him, because everything Bibi touches dies
/////This could really affect turnout if it drags on into the summer. Jennifer the pearl clutching middle of road voter the Dems really covet so much really doesn't give a flying @#$% about gaza but it really matters to his base, young people

Cant believe here we are again facing the real possibility that the Orange man will rule once more.

Dems are banking on Trump digging his own grave when he starts campaigning and Gaza to end sooner than later.

IMO Biden still beats Trump, but if he loses its because Bibi gave Biden the middle finger which led the Biden admin to just double down w/ supporting him. Its no different than Blair going all in w/ GWB.

Is there ever a chance of an independent coming in at this stage and rocking the boat? Not including the Kennedy bloke..

Biden will get nothing positive from supporting Bibi, not even influence over there - they know he cannot afford to be seen as "weak", so he has given them a blank cheque that even the GOP hardliners in the house would never have given Israel. Look at how Smotrich basically told Biden to go f himself when told to ensure the PA get paid the taxes that Israel collect.

I also don't think there is anything more inevitable, even including Hillary making an idiot of herself again, in this campaign than Bibi calling Trump something like "Israel's greatest ally" and saying October 7th would never have happened under his watch.
