Panicking liberals urge Kamala Harris to appear with Rogan as Trump’s staggering ratings on podcast revealed
Liberals are left despondent after it emerged that Donald Trump’s interview with Joe Rogan racked up a whopping 17 million views on YouTube in less than 24 hours.
The three-hour meeting covered a wide range of topics, including UFOs, the John F. Kennedy assassination files, the border and healthy food in the US.
As soon as the episode was released just after 10pm Eastern time on Friday evening, the ratings skyrocketed by 300,000 in the first 30 minutes.
By comparison, Kamala Harris’ appearance on the Call her Daddy podcast with Alex Cooper has only received 685,000 views in the two weeks since it went live.
The vice president was also scheduled to be interviewed by Rogan but had to withdraw due to scheduling conflicts, a spokesperson said.

The former president spoke with Rogan and discussed, among other things, UFOs, the assassination files of John F. Kennedy, the border and healthy food in the US.
However, since details about Trump’s ratings emerged, many liberals have been urging Harris to sit down with the popular podcast host.
“I’m definitely a devil’s advocate, but Kamala Harris is moving on with Joe Rogan. The #1 podcast in America,” someone wrote on X.
“You have to be a president for all the people. Donald Trump is currently requesting the Joe Rogan podcast.”
“Come on Joe Rogan, please Kamala Harris, show them all what a grown up candidate for president looks and sounds like!” Another added.
“It will probably hit over 30 million views on The Joe Rogan podcast before the end of the night,” one person mused.
“Go to Joe Rogan’s podcast,” a Democrat tweeted the vice president. “The biggest podcast audience there is, and Trump looked and sounded ridiculous last night.
“Rogan is pretty honest and down to earth. It would be a good sight. Hillary made a mistake by not moving forward with Stern in 2016. She admitted that herself. DO IT.’
Both candidates’ podcast appearances are part of a strategy to use non-traditional media forms to reach more voters.
By comparison, Kamala Harris’ appearance on the Call her Daddy podcast with Alix Earle has only received 685,000 views in the two weeks since it went live.
Liberals have now begged the vice president to sit down with Rogan after she previously declined an invitation due to scheduling conflicts
But there is fear among Democrats that Trump has done this much more successfully than his opponent.
By appearing on Rogan’s podcast, Trump was able to appeal directly to his 81 percent male listeners, the majority of whom are under the age of 35.
This is a demographic Harris is struggling to emulate, according to recent polls.
A USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll shows Trump leading among men 53 percent to 37 percent, while Harris’ lead among women is 53 percent to 36 percent.
