Democrats/Progressives Want Their Own Joe Rogan

As Robby Soave pointed out: they had their own Joe Rogan. His name was 'Joe Rogan.'

   But Rogan is a smart and intellectually honest guy. And such a person tends to be repelled by the contemporary left.

   Back in the day, Dems went through a phase of loudly pining for their own Rush Limbaugh. There was a, so far as I know, rather short-lived channel or broadcast or whatever called, I believe, "Air America." IIRC, Al Franken was on it, as was Janeane Garofalo. Anyway, it failed. At the time I leaned way Democrat, but I was still kinda glad it did fail. I remember saying: it's a good sign that we don't have our own Rush; Rush is a major-league bullshitter. Which he was.

   But Rogan isn't.

   He's a pretty smart, fair-minded, reasonable guy.

   And he was a Democrat.

   But then the Democrats went insane.

   This makes it much more difficult to get another smart, fair-minded, reasonable guy.

   First, they'd need some smart, fair-minded and reasonable policies and ideas.

   And those are nowhere on the horizon.

   If they suddenly become reasonable again, they'll likely get Rogan back. And this will eventually happen. The Trump administration is already trying the patience of a lot of people who voted for him.

   Note: the media is lying about "Trump regret." Their cooked polls are no more accurate on this issue than they are on elections. In fact, Trump's approval rating is high, and only a percent or two of Trump voters would change their vote were the election held today. Kamala was a joke. There's basically no choice between her and Trump. Which is faint praise...but it's a comparative choice.

   Nevertheless, he's trying our patience. Or, at least, he's trying mine. He's done a lot of good since taking office, but he seems to be doing a lot of pretty worrisome shit, too. In a lot of cases, it's just not clear what to think about what he's doing. But there's certainly significant prima facie reason for concern.
