Media Bias and Its Influence
In the latest episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, he made a startling prediction about the 2024 presidential election. Rogan suggested that Kamala Harris, whom he called the “worst and least popular vice president of all time,” might win the election. His guest, political commentator Michael Malice, joined him in discussing how the media could sway voters towards Harris.
Rogan expressed concerns over what he sees as a significant media bias favoring Harris. He believes the media has transformed her from an unpopular vice president into a potential hero for the Democratic Party. He stated, “Everybody forever was like, Kamala Harris is the worst vice president. She’s the least popular vice president of all time. Then in a moment, a moment in time, all of a sudden, she’s our solution. She’s our hero. Everybody’s with her.”
The Fragility of the Human Mind
Rogan’s worries center around the fragility of the human mind and how easily people can be influenced. He argued that the media’s portrayal of Harris has been overwhelmingly positive, making it hard to find any negative stories about her online. He feels this media bias is manipulating public perception and could potentially lead to Harris winning the election.
This manipulation is troubling to Rogan. He said, “It all bothers me, the fragility of the human mind. They just want no Trump no matter what, and they’re willing to gaslight themselves.”
Kamala Harris’s Popularity Problem
Despite Rogan’s fears, it’s important to remember just how unpopular Kamala Harris has been. Her approval ratings have been consistently low, and many Americans see her as ineffective and unqualified. Michael Malice challenged Rogan’s prediction, pointing out that Harris’s past actions and low approval ratings would likely hinder her chances in the election.
Malice argued, “How bad do you have to be that you can’t even make Iowa? She couldn’t even compete with the mayor of South Bend.”
The Role of Media Bias
While the media can have a powerful influence on public opinion, it’s unlikely that they can completely change the narrative around such a disliked politician. The media has been able to control some narratives, but they can’t erase the public’s memory of Harris’s failures and unpopularity.
Rogan’s suggestion that Harris might be medicated to handle the stress of her position, though speculative, adds another layer of concern. However, this kind of speculation only highlights the desperation in trying to make her seem more capable than she might actually be.
The Bigger Picture
Rogan also mentioned other potential Democratic candidates like Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama. He suggested that Clinton could win if she jumped back into the race and noted that Obama has a strong following. Malice and Rogan discussed these possibilities, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the current political climate.
Rogan believes that Democrats are so focused on avoiding another Trump presidency that they might gaslight themselves into supporting a candidate like Harris, despite her unpopularity. This willingness to overlook uncomfortable truths is something Rogan finds deeply troubling.
Final Thoughts
Joe Rogan’s prediction that Kamala Harris might win the 2024 presidential election raises important questions about media influence and public perception. While the media can certainly sway opinions, it’s unlikely they can make the most disliked vice president of all time a viable candidate for president. Harris’s low approval ratings and past failures are significant obstacles that even the most biased media coverage might not overcome.
What do you think? Is Joe Rogan right to be concerned about media bias and its impact on the election? Could Kamala Harris really become the next president? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.
Media bias enough to elect Harris? We can only hope it isn’t! Most of us know that the media has a socialist bent. They attempt to mislead the public by presenting their opinions and preferences as facts. This is dishonest reporting. But there are people who are prone to believing without question anything they here in the media. For Harris to become President would e a travesty.
