 Gm,

I'll bet money a new American tradition was just set last night whereby every presidential candidate will need to go on Rogan, and it'll be far more important than the "debate" 
 I can't see Kamala going on Rogan. Her campaign would collapse if she had to talk unscripted for 3 hours. 
 Prolly 💯 true...I did like how Joe said he'd talk to her as a human though, he's based 
 She’ll go on whomever is the left leaning (close to) equivalent to JRE 
 Heck, even an hour or so with softballs from a milquetoast Anderson Cooper puts her on the word-salad defensive. 
 I am waiting debates on the hot ones 🍗 
 I don’t understand why the democrats can’t get through their heads that Americans find it refreshing when they feel *authenticity* from a person running for office. 

Not a malfunctioning robot.

Not that Trump is always authentic but clearly he just is able to say what’s on his mind. The DNC doesn’t allow that, period. 
 The left needs to strip supporting the DNC. They’re just neoconservatives at this point.
Kamala is doing shows with McCains ffs 
 Correct.

The Democratic Party is done. 
 To be fair, the GOP died as well and is being rebuilt under this Trump/populism umbrella 
 Yes.
They need to see and copy some of the popular things Jill Stein brings instead of trying to end her. 
 Yes. But without the complete socialist take over of industry to fight climate change… 
 All doable I’m sure. 
 I agree. Being able to show you can handle a 3 hour conversation will be important after Biden.
